The body of 46-year-old medicial techician, Anand Swaroop was found under mysterious circumstances near Rawatpur bus stand in Nawabganj here yesterday, a police spokesman said.
A suicide note found with the body, blamed one Nagendra Swaroop and his family for the death, police said.
As per the note, Nagendra had asked Anand to donate his kidney in 2011 promising a job and some money. But after Anand donated his kidney, he was neither paid the money nor given a job, police said.
Nagendra said he had nothing to do with the death and laid the blame on Anand's family. He, however, admitted that he had got Anand's kidney transferred.
Anand's sister also accused Nagendra, saying he had not kept his promises and had pushed Anand to commit suicide.
A case has been registered against Nagendra and his family under section 306 (abetment of suicide) of IPC, police said, adding that preliminary reports of Anand's post mortem suggested poison as the cause of death.
