Police suspect it to be a case of suicide as the body was found hanging in room No 205 of the hotel.

Since the last one-and-half months, he had been staying in that hotel, said police.

The hotel owner said, โ€œOn Friday night after having food, Kamal Saha had attended a phone call from his home and went to his room No 205.โ€

โ€œHe was last seen at 11 pm. When the housekeeper rang the bell of his room, Kamal Saha did not open the door,โ€ said the hotel owner.

โ€œWhen the door remained closed from inside even after a few hours, the hotel employees became curious. Then the door had to be broken and his body was found hanging in the room,โ€ he added.
