On Wednesday night, a 20-year-old, Pallavi Vikamsey, law intern was found dead on Mumbai railway tracks near Currey Road station. The deceased was the daughter of Nilesh Vikamsey, president of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI). The Dadar government railway police are investigating the case. “ The parents told us that Vikamsey had sent them a message that & lsquo no one is responsible' before her phone was switched off,” said Sukhlal Varpe, senior inspector of MRA Marg police station. She had boarded a train from platform number 5 of CSMT around 6 pm as per regular schedule on October 4. As per the police, they received a call from the station master at 8.30pm about a body lying on the tracks. The body was sent to KEM Hospital. She was a resident of Curry Road, when Pallavi did not return home on Wednesday night, her parents began calling her but her phone switched off. The parents then moved to the MRA Marg police and registered a missing person's FIR. An official of the Dadar GRP said an eyewitness had been traced. His statement will be recorded on Friday. “ It is not clear whether Vikamsey fell from the running train on the opposite tracks or whether she jumped off in front of an oncoming train,” said Nitin Bbade, senior police inspector of Dadar GRP. Samadhan Pawar, deputy commissioner of police, GRP (Central Railway), said that the parents had not alleged any foul play, “ We are trying to find out what led to her death,” said Pawar. The body was handed over to the parents after post-mortem on Thursday.
