After released on bail, he shifted to Mysore and worked as a driver. A few months ago, Wilson’s wife died due to an ailment and Wilson was dejected since then. On Sunday evening, Wilson tried to end his life by hanging at his house in Udayasuriyan Nagar, but his relatives rescued him and admitted him to the Government Stanley Hospital. However, he died without responding to treatment. MKB Nagar police have registered a case about the incident.
