The incident might have happened between 7.30 and 8 am as it can be seen in the CCTV footage,” the SP informed, adding that the OC’s body was found by his PSO and driver, who were looking for him to go to Boleng and had unsuccessfully called on his phone.
The SP said that the deceased, as told by some of the colleagues, was suffering from depression and had even shared some cryptic posts on social media platforms.
He informed that after post-mortem, the body has been sent to his native place, Tezu in Lohit district for performing the last rites.
