Anjana Shanthveer, who had filed a case of cheating and cheque bounce in June 2015 against Baburao Basavannappa Chinchansur, then Minister of Textiles, allegedly committed suicide on Wednesday night.The incident took place at her residence in Chandra Layout where she hung herself. The 38-year-old woman had allegedly given Rs 11 crore to the former minister.
However, the family took a few days time to bring her death to the notice of the media and claimed the woman was under constant threat due to the court case.Sources claim she had called her son and informed him about her decision. Her son, who is 18 years old, rushed home and with the help of neighbours broke open the door to find his mother hanging.
Anjana’s body was then taken to the government-run Victoria hospital and the final rites were conducted the next day.
A suicide note was allegedly found where Anjana claimed that many people cheated her and hence she was taking the extreme step due to the financial strain.
