A 50 year old man allegedly tried to commit suicide at the office of Assistant Commissioner of Police(ACP) in north west Delhi's Model Town area, by consuming a poisonous substance today.
The man has been identified as a local shopkeeper Satish Kumar who consumed a poisonous substance at the Model Town ACP office. He was rushed to a nearby hospital by the policemen who spotted him.
Satish was declared out of danger after treatment by the doctors. He revealed during questioning that he took the step under pressure as he was depressed due to threats from moneylenders who had given him huge amount of loans, said a senior police officer.
