Mahant Narendra Giri, president of the Akhil Bharatiya Akhada Parishad, was found dead at Allahabad's Baghambari Muth on Monday, September 20.

While Uttar Pradesh police noted that the seer's death appeared, at first glance, to be a suicide, investigations into whether this is the case or if he was murdered, are still ongoing. The police even made a 13-page suicide note, retrieved from where Giri was found dead, available to the media.

Under these circumstances, the question which arises is: Why were the police so quick to declare Giri's death a suicide? Watch The Wire's Sharat Pradhan tackle this question.
