Fed up with one-sided affair, army doctor kills self

Mathura: An army doctor allegedly committed suicide by injecting himself with poison in Radha Dham colony here due to a failed love affair, police said today.

Lt Colonel Dr TV Jaghav was suffering through depression as a result of a one-sided love affair with a nurse of a hospital where he was posted, SP City Ashok Kumar said.

Father of two, Jaghav yesterday drove the nurse at a remote place on pretext of some important work and tried to have sex with her. When she outrightly rejected it, Jagahv got infuriated. He returned home and committed suicide, the nurse alleged in her FIR.

“Since he was a senior officer of the nurse, she had no option but to accompany him outside hospital,” Dy SP Alok Mishra said, adding that the matter is being thoroughly investigated.
