Mid Day quoted the doctor saying: “Roy was on suggestive targeted therapy. On April 30, we conducted a PET scan on him and were quite pleased to see that all the soft tissues and cancer were almost missing from the scan. He was extremely happy and he asked us when he can rejoin duty.” Nagarkar reportedly had positive talks with Roy just weeks before he committed suicide. Roy I n fact wanted to address an open forum of cancer patients. Nagarkar was reported saying that although cancer patients develop suicidal tendencies during the course of their treatment, but with proper motivation and counselling, they do well. Nagarkar reportedly believes that due to staying away from his uniform for long and weakness, could have triggered frustration within Roy’s mind. He ruled out the theory that Roy committed suicide because of cancer.
