Dinesh Makwana was a resident of the Kanadiya police station area of Indore. He owned liquor contracts in the Chapra Group, Karnavad Group, and Double Chowki areas of Dewas district. He said that Mandakini Dixit was pressurising him to pay a bribe each month. Frustrated with this, he committed suicide.
Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav wrote on social media, “Taking cognizance of the viral video made by a liquor contractor in Dewas district before his suicide, the Assistant Excise Commissioner in charge of Dewas has been suspended with immediate effect. An investigation is underway against him. This case appears to be extremely serious at first glance.”
