Taking my life because of cops’ greed: Mulund CA

Suicide note of CA Chirag Veraiya

The chartered accountant from Mulund, who died by suicide at his friend’s bungalow in Igatpuri last month, left a four-page suicide note, alleging that he is forced to take the action because of the harassment of the police.


A former colleague of Chirag Varaiya had lodged a rape complaint with the Bhandup police. In his letter titled ‘My last letter’—a copy of which with mid-day—he said that her former colleague and her husband framed him in a fake case.


His reference to the police starts with “police/DCP office”, and goes on to state, “...Your fake action disturbed my entire family. My family, clients, and staff, including 500 people, are dependent on me....I could have lived for 100 years, but I have to cut my life short because of your wrong and greedy action...”


“Let it be….but in future, don’t repeat this. In last few years I earned goodwill and a reputation which spoiled completely [sic],” he wrote.

Superintendent of Police Sahaji Umape, Nashik Gramin, told mid-day, “We found a suicide note from CA Chirag Veraiya and are matching his handwriting with that in the note. He also wrote about police corruption, but did not mention any names.”

In his message to the former colleague and her husband, he said, “If possible, give all the money to the investors and be good human beings.”

‘I’m innocent...’

“In the last moments of my life, I will not lie. I never touched my colleague and her entire statement is false. My last wish is to forgive all of them and give them a chance to become good human beings.” To his wife, he said, “I love my wife. Forgive me. Take care of kids Mithil and Nishka. Goodbye.”

“I am sorry and I am a bad father who didn’t complete the responsibility of father. You should now stand independent and complete the education. I am praying that one day you will grow and become a big man. Also take care of my mother[sic],” he wrote for his kids.

Chirag’s brother Sanjay Veraiya said, “We have not seen the suicide note yet. We will go to the Igatpuri police station next week. On January 10, the Bhandup police registered a case against Chirag and picked him up on January 26 to record his statement. The police have now taken the statements of the woman and her husband who had lodged the rape case.”
