New Delhi: A 44-year-old professor from Kolkata’s Jadavpur University was found dead in a hotel room in Uttarakhand, with cuts on his hand and throat slit. Police suspect that the victim identified as Mainak Pal may have died by suicide.
He had reportedly told his friends that he was missing his daughter and wanted to return home. However, when his family couldn’t reach him by phone on Friday evening, they contacted the hotel.
The hotel staff forced open the door and found Pal’s body in the bathroom, with deep cuts on his hands and throat slit, and blood splattered on the floor.
The death of the Philosophy professor has left his colleagues in Kolkata in shock. The Jadavpur University Teachers’ Association said that Pal made a strong impact as a teacher.
“We are in deep shock since we heard about his death,” said Partha Pratim Roy, the general secretary of the association.
