Suicide remained a mystery
I am working in Indian Air Force for past 17 years. In Aug 2023 my collegue having 15 years of service was declared as committed suicide at work place. Earlier 2 years before the incident he committed suicide but survived and got treatment for mental condition in MH Secunderabad. He got excuse from night duties and some other duties.1 year he worked with me ,he is a vey good ,kind,caring person.He cleared a very tough promotion exam in his first attempt. But unfortunately 2 of his superiors harassed him for being vulnerable. They forced him to do very tough night duties where as he was excused by medical authorities. Both superiors (Junior commissioned officers) used to shout on him very loudly but he did not say anything in return to them .but he cried several in front of me. I have conveyed same message to them as he was a psychiatric patient .but they even increased their attack on my helpless collegue.even they have challenged him to commit suicide ,they humiliated him publicly also many times .finally one fateful day he was declared dead by suicide at the work place. Now 9 months have passed .but I want to bring justice to his soul by filing a case of abetment to suicide or murder. Kindly guide me how to proceed , because many bright soldiers are commiting their valuable lives because of the torture by some JCOs and other superiors.The redressal system in armed forces seemed biased this soldiers becoming helpless and susceptible for suicides. I strongly believe that it should be stopped and this case should become a deterrance effect .please guide me what to do. He is the only child of his widow mother, she is willing to file a case.
