Inspector of I Town Police Station K Venkata Rao said that Mahesh reportedly died of a cardiac arrest few days ago and his body reached Vizag Airport on Monday. Mahesh’s family members alleged that the death of his son was not informed by the company and they are suspecting foul play Blaming the consultancy firm for the death of Mahesh, relatives of Mahesh staged a protest in front of the firm and also refused to take the body from the airport.
