Prima facie it seems to be a case of suicide. However, the final conclusion can be drawn only after the post mortem report comes. We have registered a case of unnatural death and started investigation.

When he broke the door he found Pallavi’s body hanging from the fan. He immediately informed the police.
While the police suspect it to be a case of suicide, Pallavi’s family alleged that there was some foul play involved. Speaking to a media person, his father Neelu Dey said,
Her partner had a registered marriage with someone else two years ago and we came to know about it six months ago. There was another girl he was close to and this often caused trouble in their relationship. We don’t know who saw him hanging.
He told the police that Chakraborty had forced Pallavi to pay for an apartment she had purchased in Rajarhat. However, Chakraborty’s mother denied the allegations, saying,
We had bought the flat in Rajarhat which Pallavi’s parents are claiming to have bought with her money. Pallavi did not make any contribution. We paid Rs 43 lakh in cash and took a loan to pay the remaining amount.
His parents also alleged that Chakraborty was financially dependent on their daughter Pallavi. Both of them had bought a luxury apartment worth Rs 10 lakh in New Town. 60 lakhs (at Pallavi Day price).
However, Sagnik’s parents denied all the allegations and said that there were never any major problems between Pallavi and Sagnik. Speaking to a media person, Sagnik’s mother said,
They lived together. Although we were not in full support, we still allowed them because they were older. Many times I had asked Sagnik to stay somewhere else and live with me after marriage. He didn’t have any major issues. I dont know what happen.”
Later, Pallavi’s father filed a complaint against Sagnik with the Kolkata Police, alleging that he and a woman had murdered his daughter.

According to Deputy Commissioner of Police Atul V., in-charge of South Suburban Division of Kolkata Police, Sagnik Chakraborty was booked under IPC sections related to murder, cheating, criminal breach of trust, criminal conspiracy and dishonest misappropriation of property. He further said that the arrest was based on financial fraud committed by Chakraborty. Talking to a media person about Chakraborty, the investigating officer said,
Many discrepancies have been found in Chakraborty’s statements regarding his work and source of income. We have found that the victim had closed his Salt Lake office a week before her death and is currently unemployed. However, when we asked him about his profession he did not say.
