His wife along with other family members reached Sriharikota on Tuesday after learning about the death of her husband. She was found hanging from the ceiling fan in the guest house located at SHAR premises today morning, a police official told PTI.

She is suspected to have died by suicide as she was unable to bear the death of her husband, the official said.

Another CISF jawan deployed at SHAR was found hanging from a tree on Sunday, police said.

Asked about the reasons behind the deaths of the two CISF personnel, the official said based on preliminary investigation it seems they took the extreme step due to family related issues.

The official further said none of the family members of both the deceased CISF personnel complained over alleged harassment by senior officials.

Police said they had registered separate cases in connection with the three suicide incidents. No suicide note was found, they added.
