The Nagpada Police are investigating the incident after having registered an accidental death report to determine the motive behind this grave step.
Constable Kailas Gavali, stationed at the Worli local arms unit of Mumbai Police, took an 89-day medical leave. Formerly assigned to Mahim Police Station, his health prompted a transfer to the local arms unit. Upon returning, he visited the Worli office, where he needed a fitness certificate from Nagpada Police Hospital to resume duty.
