Youth Jaspal Singh Yadav committed suicide by being hit by a train.
A young man who was allegedly cheated of ₹23 lakh on the pretext of arranging a bank loan and using forged documents died by suicide after jumping in front of a train in Gwalior.
The deceased, identified as Jaspal Singh Yadav, reportedly left behind a five-page handwritten suicide note naming three people whom he blamed for the alleged fraud.
In the note, Jaspal addressed Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia, writing that by the time Scindia read the letter, he would have already left the world.
Jaspal was reportedly a supporter of Scindia. According to the note, the accused allegedly took ₹23 lakh from him by promising to arrange a loan against his property. He claimed that he had already paid interest at 20%, taking his financial liability to around ₹35 lakh.
Body found near Jhansi road railway line
Jaspal had been missing since Saturday. His body was found late Sunday night on the railway tracks along Jhansi Road.
His family identified the body on Monday morning. Police have sent it for post-mortem examination.
Police have taken the handwritten suicide note into custody and begun investigating the allegations. Officials are also examining the mobile numbers and addresses mentioned in the note to trace the accused.
In the morning, family members identified the body.
₹23 Lakh Taken on Promise of ₹3.45 Crore Loan
According to the suicide note, the accused allegedly told Jaspal that a ₹3.45 crore loan had been sanctioned against his land, which was reportedly worth around ₹1.5 crore.
The accused allegedly showed him a purported Piramal Bank sanction letter to convince him that the loan had been approved. They then allegedly collected ₹23 lakh from him on the pretext of completing the loan process.
Money Taken in February 2025, Promises Continued Until July 2026
Jaspal alleged that the accused took the money from him in February 2025 but failed to arrange the loan until July 2026.
When he began demanding his money back and pressed the accused for an update on the loan, they allegedly fled.
The suicide note also claims that the accused had allegedly cheated several other people in the area using a similar modus operandi.
Main accused allegedly hid at relative’s house
In the final portion of the note, Jaspal alleged that the main accused, Ravi Kumar of Tekanpur, had fled and was hiding in Kulaithpura village, where his brother-in-law had allegedly given him shelter.
Jaspal claimed that when he went there, a village panchayat was convened and he was given assurances that his money would be returned. Ravi allegedly promised to repay the money on July 30 but subsequently fled to Kuchhwa Gurjar village in Gohad.
The note further alleges that Ravi’s brothers-in-law in Kalyanipura and Kuchhwa Gurjar were also involved in sheltering him.
‘I wanted to live, but Ravi ruined my life’
In the five-page suicide note, Jaspal named Ashish Gupta, Ravi Jatav of Dabra and Ravi Kumar of Tekanpur as those he held responsible for his death.
He alleged that he had arranged the ₹23 lakh by pledging his Bullet motorcycle, gold, Safari and car and borrowing money at 20% interest.
Jaspal also alleged that Ravi Kumar had taken ₹9.80 lakh from another person identified as Lalla Balram and cheated him as well.
The note reportedly states that Jaspal wanted to live but felt that his life had been ruined because of the alleged fraud. He requested that the money owed to him be recovered and handed over to his father.
He also appealed for strict action against the accused and specifically addressed Scindia, asking that the letter reach him.
Police are now investigating the allegations contained in the suicide note and verifying the claims regarding the alleged loan fraud and other victims.
