While one team (including inspector general of police, CID, Hemanth Nimbalkar) was back in the city on Sunday, another (headed by superintendent of police, CID, Kumarswamy) stayed back in Madikeri to continue the investigation. There were a few developments in the case after Ganapathi’s father,, told the press that he did not write the complaint letter or complain about his depression or make allegations against his daughter-in-law, Pavana.He had also said that the police officials had forced him to sign on the letter which stated that his son Ganapathi had marital disputes and was under depression. Kushalappa told the media that he was asked to sign a letter before the police handed over his son’s body after post mortem, and he did. He was not aware of what was written in the letter; it was written/prepared by the police, he said.The CID officials have questioned a number of people associated with the late DySP, including the autorickashaw driver who took Ganapathi to the lodge, a regional news channel, and a doctor who was treating him for the last one month.The officials visited the lodge, recorded the statement of the staff, visited the family and took statements from them. They also visited the IGP’s office where he was posted since the last two months and questioned his colleagues.The police investigation, however, seemed to be heading only towards proving that Ganapathi was depressed over his marital life.His brother,, had repeatedly claimed that Ganapathi had problems with his marriage and was under depression. Keeping all these statements in mind, the officials were likely to file a report to the government on Monday morning.According to the police, in order to take up an abetment of suicide case, undersection 306, Ganapathi should have made a statement inside the lodge. The late DySP had also produced a medial fitness certificate for the regional channel during his interview, which stated that he did not have any mental or physical issues.On Sunday, the CID team met and recorded the statement of Dr PK, department of psychiatry,, who had treated Ganapathi for a month, it was learnt. Ganapathi had first visited the doctor about two months ago, complaining of headache and mild depression. However, later, he visited the doctor on June 23. The doctor had prescribed medicines for three weeks. He was supposed to see the doctor again on Wednesday.About two months ago, when he first visited, the doctor had reportedly advised him to mingle with people and exercise. During his second visit, Ganapathi had told the doctor that there was work pressure and it was common in his profession. He even told him that he was forgetting things.
