Another officer stated that they learned from the Srinagar police that Mir was very disturbed and often used to be absent from duty. In this case, the police have filed an Accidental Death Report (ADR) and are investigating the matter.

Training test did not go well

The police stated that in the preliminary investigation, it was revealed that Mir had come to Navi Mumbai to take a test for drone pilot training, and the test did not go well. Because of this, Mir was quite distressed, which is why he took such a step. The police had sent Mir's body to Vashi Municipal Hospital, where it was determined in the post-mortem that his death was due to falling from a height. An officer mentioned that those whose statements were recorded had said that Mir had torn his paper and left the examination center.

The police also obtained CCTV footage from the building, which clearly shows that he fell from the building, resulting in his death. When the Navi Mumbai police informed the Srinagar Police about this, it was revealed that he had not informed the police department about coming here to take the exam in any way, nor had he taken leave for that purpose. During the investigation, it was also found that before coming to Navi Mumbai, Mir had taken an online course on drones for two days and had reached the offline exam center to take the exam.
