He came to his house in Kolya and got down at Tokkottu and asked his driver to return at 10pm. The driver reached Tokkottu as per instructions at 10 pm. When he tried to contact Maniyani, the cell phone of Maniyani was found to be unreachable. When he made efforts to find out Maniyani's whereabouts by making enquiries, the driver got information that he had gone to Vrindavan Lodge. The driver went to the lodge, after calling the eldest son of Maniyani to come there. Maniyani's son too rushed there, and knocked at the room's door. When the knocks went unanswered, the door of the room was broken open. It was found that Maniyani was hanging from the roof.

It was found that Maniyani had used a newly purchased rope and scissors for committing suicide. Although two sheets of paper were found lying inside the room, no death notes were found. Therefore, the concerned are groping in the dark about the issue which had brought so much pressure on the retired policeman.
