VG Siddhartha went missing on Monday night from a river bridge in Mangaluru and a note purportedly left behind by him had an apology to his employees for “failing” to build a “profitable business model”.
The 58-year-old businessman, who was travelling on the highway to Mangaluru , asked his driver to stop the car as they were crossing the Ullal bridge across the river Nethravathi, and told him to wait at the end of the 1 km long bridge. When he did not return even after some time, driver tried reaching Siddhartha on his mobile, which had by then been switched off.

Police in Mangaluru told reporters that going by the circumstances of his disappearance they suspect he might have taken the extreme step, news agencies reported. In the letter, he apologized for “failing to create the right profitable business model“. He wrote, “I am very sorry to let down all the people that put their trust in me. I fought for a long time but today I gave up as I could not take any more pressure from one of the private equity partners forcing me to buy back shares.”
Here’s the letter :
He further added, “I sincerely request each of you to be strong and to continue running these businesses with new management.” The Coffee King took all the responsibility for his failure and wrote, “Every financial transaction is my responsibility. My team, auditors, and senior management are totally unaware of my transactions. The law should hold me and only me accountable as I have withheld this information from everybody including my family.”
