Hotel manager Neeraj Naik informed Free Press that Jumde had informed the hotel staff on October 2 not to disturb him the entire day and had paid the room rent in advance. 

Jumde's brother-in-law, who was in Nagpur, tried to contact him but his calls went unanswered thus he asked the hotel staff to look into the matter. The hotel staff knocked on the door repeatedly but as there was no response from the inside they used a duplicate key to open the door and found Milind lying in the washroom on Wednesday night. Upon receiving information, police reached the hotel and started their investigation. A four-page suicide note and some wrappers with traces of poison were recovered from there. 

In the suicide note, the deceased mentioned that his partner Rajesh Khande had ruined him. TI Soni said that one of his veins was found to be cut.
