On Wednesday, April 03, 2024, a tragic incident occurred in Hodal sub-division of Palwal district, Haryana. A youth working at ICICI Bank took his own life, allegedly due to harassment by bank officials and colleagues. The deceased’s father has filed a complaint with the police, accusing the bank manager, another employee, and others of forcing his son to commit suicide. The police have taken action based on this complaint.
Allegations of Harassment and Mental Torture
According to the complaint filed by the family members of the deceased, Dinesh, he had been working at ICICI Bank for some time. During this period, he had been subjected to mental harassment for an extended period. The family members specifically named the bank manager, Anil, and another staff employee, Sunil, as individuals responsible for the harassment. Dinesh had informed his family about this harassment on multiple occasions. In fact, he had even expressed his desire to resign from his job, but the manager did not agree and the harassment persisted. Tragically, Dinesh took the extreme step of ending his own life by hanging himself in his house.
