A senior official
of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) was arrested by the CBI on charges
of corruption, and hours after he was produced in court, his wife and daughter committed
suicide at their apartment in Delhi’s Madhu Vihar.
MCA Director-General Bal Kishan Bansal’s wife Satyabala (58) and his daughter Neha
(28) hanged themselves on July22, 2016 afternoon at Neelkanth Apartments.
The CBI conducted
a raid at Bansal’s residence for the second time on July 21. Bansal’s son
Yogesh Bansal, who ran a property business, had absconded since the CBI’s first
raid on July 16.
Bansal was the senior-most officer of the
Corporate Law Service and used to provide recommendations to the ministry on
technical matters, reporting directly to the Secretary (Corporate Affairs).
He was arrested by
the CBI on alleged charges of bribery and attempting to scuttle a probe against
a Mumbai-based pharmaceutical company that had faced allegations of duping
investors and diverting funds abroad.
Bansal was
arrested after the CBI allegedly caught him accepting a bribe of Rs 9 lakh,
based on information that the agency had obtained from unidentified sources.
Joint Commissioner
of Police (Eastern range) Satish Golcha had said about his wife and daughter's death that two separate suicide
notes were recovered. Prima facie there seemed to be no foul play. However,
investigations were being carried out,
Pahwa (neighbor) had told, “They began their raid at around 3:30 pm and continued till 5:30 am the
next day on 21 July this year.”
The CBItold the
special court that they had recovered 4-5 kg of gold and Rs 56 lakh in cash
from Bansal. The agency alleged that Bansal had made “a settlement” with the
private firm for Rs 50 lakh from which Rs 11 lakh was paid as the first
installment.
Mr BK Bansal was released on bail on last 26 August 2016. Mr Bansal committed suicide by
hanging with his son Yogesh in home on morning of September 27.
According to the information, Mr Bansal after his return from jail was
very much in trauma. He was very saddened after the death of his wife and
daughter, but his quotes were that life should flow ahead.
The son Yogesh
lived with the relatives in Hissar, but after the father’s release he arrived
in Delhi. Yogesh was in property dealing business. BKBansal and his son both
came to reside again in the same flat where he and his family had been living
since the year 2004.
According to
police, B K Bansal had called Pundit(priest) his home on Monday evening 6 o’clock.
Giving Rs 2000 he
had said to Pundit that they were going out of station for 10-15 days , so keep
the money.
Bansal had got
some worship done by Pundit (priest) after the case registered in CBI. The worshiper (priest) was the last man who
had met with Bansal before the committing suicide.
According to
information, a note before committing suicide was left in home on Tuesday,
one page of which has been hand written while remaining are of photocopies of
documents. He has given his relatives phone numbers and his photograph with suicide note. He accused
CBI for tormenting.
Bansal in the note has said about his wife and daughter’s suicide. He
told how CBI officers were tormenting his family.
Delhi police has taken the suicide note in their custody, and intimated
to the higher CBI officers because they could inquire the investigating
officers of BK Bansal.
The suicide note of 5 pages has been written by Mr Bansal, while 2
pages of his son Yogesh; but what allegations are in the notes are not being
disclosed by Delhi police. Bansal has written nothing about his property heirs.
DCP said, they are sending the suicide note to the CBI so that they can view
the allegations by deceased over its officers. However there has not been
lodged any complaint in this connection.
The CBI has
expressed its sorry after BK Bansal’s
death incident. Its officers have said the local police are probing the case. The
officials are tight lipped including delhi police. Yogesh was neither accused in this case nor he was
summoned by the CBI.The CBI was probing only bribe case which is still continuous.
