Sujit, who flew in from Dubai on Friday, said he called Ajith in hospital on Wednesday after he learnt the charges were dropped. “It was the stress of it all, his health deteriorated and he spiralled downwards. Since then, there was also a lot of pressure on his immediate family.Sujit described his older brother as “very strong and loved by everyone who knew him”.“He was someone you could count on and if he gave you his word, you could count on it.
