A 30-year-old stone quarry worker, upset with his wife following some tiff with her, blew himself up with some explosives used in mines, the police said today.
Vinod Meena committed suicide last night near a school building with the incident getting captured on a nearby CCTV camera, said SHO Bhawani Singh of Goverdhan Vilas police station.
Meena, who worked in a stone quarry and had some know-how of using explosives, tied them on his body and detonated them using a burning match stick, the SHO said.
He said that an FSL team visited the spot after the incident and examined the crime scene.
Meena had some tiff with his wife and was living separately from her for the last four-five days, the police official said, adding that the matter is being probed.
