Raigad Police had closed this case in April 2019 after they failed to find reasonable evidence against Arnab, Shaikh, and Sarda for the reason of suicide. Anvay was found hanging on the first floor while his mother’s body (Kumud Naik) was found on the ground floor by the police. Anvay was in heavy trouble because he was unable to pay the money to the contractors.
According to the information,” Anvay’s daughter encourages the Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh to reopen the case of Anvay. He also tweeted in May,” Adnya Naik had complained to me that Alibaug Police had not investigated non-payment dues from Arnab Goswami’s public which drove her entrepreneur father and grandma to suicide in May 2018. I have ordered a CID investigation of the case”.
