Jaipur: City police Thursday rescued a 34-year-old man who left his home on Sirsi Road after sending a video message to his family, indicating he intended to end his life.
SHO (Bindayaka) Rajesh Verma said the man, identified as Jitendra Singh, was traced near Kanakpura railway station using digital surveillance. “His family informed us after receiving a disturbing video message from him. We tracked his location and reached in time to prevent any mishap,” Verma told TOI.
Singh reportedly made a similar suicide threat just a day earlier, which also caused distress to his family. “He is a habitual drinker and left home in a similar manner Wednesday,” the officer said. Police said Singh has worked in private companies, but his current employment status is unclear. He was taken into custody under Section 170 of BNSS, which allows arrest to prevent commission of a cognisable offence.
