Private Finance Company employee dies by suicide; family alleges mental harassment

Amid rising cases of deaths due to work pressure, a 42-year-old area manager of a private finance company in Jhansi has allegedly died by suicide, with his family accusing senior colleagues of "mental torture" over unmet recovery targets.
The deceased, Tarun Saxena, was found hanging at his home on Sunday. A suicide note recovered by the police has raised serious allegations of exploitation by his superiors at the Private Finance Company, where Saxena was employed as an area manager.

"Tarun Saxena committed suicide by hanging himself with a dupatta. A suicide note was found in which he accused his senior colleagues of mounting pressure by assigning unachievable recovery targets," said Superintendent of Police (City) Gyanendra Kumar Singh.
