Based on preliminary investigation, the police suspect that Pallavi died by suicide. “Prima facie it appears to be a case of suicide. However, the final conclusion can be drawn only after the post-mortem report comes. We have started investigation after registering a case of unnatural death.”
It is learned that the deceased actress has been living in a rented house in South Kolkata since April 24 this year. Sagnik Chakraborty, who is said to be his live-in partner, had been living with him in the same house since the beginning.
