“We had information about an individual coming towards Vashi bridge to commit suicide. We couldn’t take chance and we laid a trap there in dark,” senior police inspector from Vashi traffic said.
Blah was recently asked to step down from his position in the firm after a section of media reported that he had allegedly sexually harassed four women employees of the company.
Blah was frustrated with the #Metoo allegations on him and was depressed due to the defamation he and his family faced, according to reports.
He founded KWAN, along with nine others.
