Harsha said family dispute was the 'prima facie reason' for the alleged suicide.

"He was undergoing the pain of divorce, and hence he tookthis extreme step," he said. Forensic and explosive experts rushed to the spot and are investigating, Harsha said. The International Airport Police Station has filed a complaint, he said.
