A 56-year-old Delhi police inspector allegedly shot himself dead at his residence in Rohini, police said on Wednesday. The deceased Jai Bhagwan was posted in Delhi Police's Security Wing.
"The incident came to light when Jai's wife returned home from the office and saw his body lying on the floor," police said.
However, the time of the incident is not yet known.
Police said that the gun recovered from the spot was the personnel's service revolver. However, no suicide note has been recovered yet, so the reason behind the grave step could not be ascertained.
Further, probe is on.
