Kawardha: A shocking incident has emerged from Kawardha, where a businessman, along with his wife and two children, consumed poison. The cause was crores of rupees in debt and mounting pressure.

It is reported that businessman Yogesh Jain had outstanding debts of approximately ₹4 crore. The debt burden became so severe that he was mentally broken. According to his family, he was also receiving threats from certain individuals, which further exacerbated his stress.

Under pressure, he and his wife and children consumed poison. When their condition worsened, they were immediately rushed to the hospital, where all four remain in critical condition.

Police also recovered a three-page suicide note at the scene, which mentioned debt, financial problems, and mental stress. The police are now proceeding with the investigation based on that note.

The police are currently investigating every angle, including whether debt was the sole reason or whether there were other pressures. Investigations have also begun into the individuals named in the note.
