Click to play videoNew Delhi: The mystery behind the alleged plot to kill Anil Ambani has deepened after the man who discovered that the billionaire businessman's helicopter had been sabotage was found dead on Tuesday in Mumbai.
On April 23, mud and pebbles were found in the gearbox of Anil Ambani's Bell 412 chopper. Anil Ambani and nine Reliance Infocomm officials were scheduled to fly to Navi Mumbai the next day.
Police arrested four employees of Airworks, which maintained Ambani's Bell 412 helicopter, were arrested and then released after questioning/
Airworks has already put 52 non-technical staff off duty till the investigation is over.
But on Tuesday, Bharat Borge, a senior technician of Airworks who discovered the alleged sabotage attempt was found dead on the railway tracks near Vile Parle level crossing.
Borge had found pebbles and mud in the gear box of Ambani's helicopter, hours before the industrialist was to take off.
Police have sought help from the Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) and have sent the pebbles to Forensic Science Laboratory to determine type and composition and aid the investigation.
Borge had also reportedly written a suicide note. The letter written in Marathi is addressed to an investigating officer of the Crime Branch.
In the letter, Borge has apparently written that people from Reliance went to his house and took his number and said they would come and meet him.
Borge wrote that he decided to write the letter after he saw one of the accused being beaten up and felt scared.
In the letter, he told investigators to follow the trail they were on. Police are yet to confirm if the letter was, infact, written by the victim.
If it turns out to be authentic, it can be used by the police to prove this was not a case of suicide
His death has left several key questions unanswered.
- Who were the men from 'Reliance' who went to Borge's house?
- What secrets did Borge know?
- Had Borge unwillingly become a part of the sabotage conspiracy and then backed out?
- Why did Borge feel that he was being used and for what?
- The body was found on Tuesday morning, why was the news buried till the evening?
- Is the note recovered from the body authentic?
But Maharashtra Home Minister Jayant Patil said that Borge's letter explained everything clearly.
"The suicide note explains everything. Also we have two witnesses of the suicide," said Patil.
