A 26-year-old software engineer has allegedly died by suicide in Kerala’s Thiruvananthapuram, reported The Indian Express on Sunday. In an Instagram post on Thursday, the day his body was found in a tourist home in the Thampanoor area, the man alleged that he was suffering from anxiety and depressive episodes following sexual abuse by members of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh.

Anandu Aji’s body was found by the staff of the tourist home on Thursday evening.

A case of unnatural death has been registered and the probe is in its initial stages, The Indian Express quoted an unidentified police personnel as saying.

“I am not angry with anyone, except one person and an organisation,” read the letter posted on Aji’s Instagram account. “The organisation is RSS, which my father (a very good person) made me join. That is where I have suffered lifelong trauma, from the organisation and that person.”

He alleged that he “was continuously sexually abused by a person”, whom he identified as “NM”, at the age of three to four years.

The letter alleged that NM was a member of the RSS and the Bharatiya Janata Party, who was a neighbour and “considered like a relative by my family”.

The RSS is the parent organisation of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party.

The seven-page letter also alleged that other members of the Hindutva organisation sexually and physically abused Aji during camps organised by the RSS.

Aji said that he was suffering from severe mental health disorders due to the sexual abuse he was subjected to as a child.

“I know I am not his only victim,” the letter read. “Many other children have suffered abuse at his hands and at RSS camps. It’s crucial that these children receive proper care and counselling.”

He wrote in the letter that parents should provide their children with comprehensive sex education.

Kerala’s ruling Communist Party of India (Marxist) and its youth wing, the Democratic Youth Federation of India, have given written complaints to the police to investigate the allegations levelled by Aji, The New Indian Express reported.

DYFI’s Kerala General Secretary VK Sanoj alleged that Aji’s “death is a warning to such persons”, adding that the incident exposed the “inhumane face of the RSS”.

“Ananthu’s final words lay bare the kind of ideology and actions that the RSS promotes, something society must completely reject,” Maktoob Media quoted Sanoj as saying.
