Fr Mahesh Suicide Case, Shirva Parishioners Stage Protest, Demand Justice
Udupi: The Shirva parishioners gathered in front of the church demanding justice in Fr Mahesh’s suicide case here on November 2.
Fr Mahesh D’Souza (36), principal of a renowned institution of Shirva allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself in his office chamber on October 11 night.
It is learnt that the district police have got a lead in the suicide case of Fr Mahesh. But no arrest has so far been made in this case. The suicide of Fr Mahesh in his chamber has created lot of suspicion in the parishioners.
The parishioners gathered and continuously rang the church bell to get more parishioners in front of the church. The parishioners then demanded the church authorities to reveal the information about Fr Mahesh’s Death. The police nor the church authorities are revealing anything or providing any information about the case.
Final post mortem report !!! shocking? it will take a few more days still we agree. but the political person came to church & threatened the priest shown on the CCTV why he is not arrested still a question?? If he or she is an Aam Admi police would have taken to remand longtime back & by using the 3rd-grade method result was sure. Just for the reason culprit is a political person& money thrower still there is no arrest. Shame to the police. Still, police can take him to the custody & take his fingertips, match the same which the culprit slap on priest Cheek while threatening. Police & Bishop just giving excuses after excuses just want to drag the days & close the case by citing the reason of final post mortem report.
A priest will never do suicide 100%. If 1% also he decide to suicide he would have wait his other priest & cook will go to sleep at 10 PM & after midnight at his room he would have done his job silently. He was a smart priest not a stupid donkey just run to the Principal cabin to such type of act. From this angle this is much 100% sure culprit was inside his cabin. One more point his hanging position itself is 1 more clue that it is a murder, not a suicide.
My final request to the shirva parishioners Keep Protesting till the culprit is arrested. Stop Donating money to the church till the justice to Late Fr.Mahesh. Even if the family of Fr.Mahesh under threat to close the case Please encourage them. People should boycott that political party whichever party culprit belongs to b’coz the entire party is responsible for protecting the murderer.
If this case close under political influence its difficult for the people of ones called peaceful village of Karnataka SHIRVA -Manchacal to live peacefully . yesterday was Priest today or tomorrow It will be our family member.
