New Delhi: Mumbai attack martyr Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan's uncle, who attempted self-immolation alleging that the government was not doing enough to honour the victims of the 26/11 strike, is battling for life at a city hospital.
35-year-old K Mohanan, a native of Kozhikode in Kerala, had poured kerosene on his body and set himself on fire outside Gate No 4 of Parliament House near Vijay Chowk last evening.
"He had suffered 85-95 per cent of burn injuries and is undergoing treatment," a senior police official said.
Mohanan told doctors that he was unhappy at the way the victims of the Mumbai attacks were treated by the government.
"He was disturbed at the death of Sandeep. He wanted to feel the pain Sandeep might have suffered when he was shot at by the terrorists," the official said.
Mohanan, the younger brother of Sandeep's father, had told his family that he was leaving for Ernakulam but instead left for the national capital, he said.
