Debt-ridden farmer ends life

-MSN
 
Jalgaon, Jul 13 (PTI) A debt-ridden farmer allegedly committed suicide by jumping into a well in north Maharashtra, police said today.

The body of Vishwanath Kashinath Baviskar, a resident of Sukali village, was recovered today, they said.

Baviskar had taken loans from four private money lenders. He was unable to repay the amount due to frequent losses in farming, they said.

Unable to bear harassment of the money lenders, the farmer decided to end his life yesterday, they said.

As the news about the suicide spread, the kin of the deceased and villagers staged a protest demanding immediate arrest of the money lenders.

The protesters relented after police filed a case of abatement of suicide and criminal intimidation against the money lenders.
