THANE: Hours after allegedly being detained and harassed by a car driver who accused him of damaging his vehicle, the elderly man returned home, unable to bear the shame or the financial burden—and took his own life.

On Tuesday evening, while driving passengers toward Dombivli station, his rickshaw accidentally grazed a car. The moment, seemingly minor, would spiral into a nightmare.
