Abu Dhabi Stadium’s chief curator, Mohan Singh (45), who was born in Uttarakhand, was discovered hanging in his room.

Abu Dhabi Cricket stated that with immense sorrow that they announced that Mohan Singh, the Head Curator, has passed away on Sunday. They said that Mohan has worked with Abu Dhabi Cricket for 15 years and has been a major element of the venue's achievement throughout that time.

They added that tributes to Mohan and his remarkable accomplishments will be addressed in the next few days. He added that their hearts are with Mohan’s family and respectfully request that the media respect the family’s privacy during this difficult time.

Mohan was discovered hanging in his room, according to one of the cricket sources from the UAE. A senior official associated with tournament organisers told PTI, “Mohan Singh came to the ground and inspected the ground and playing turf” that morning. He added that Singh talked to them regarding the preparations and left. People went to his room after he failed to show up at the venue, and he was discovered hanging from his ceiling. The senior official added they just found out that Singh had been extremely depressed for months, they are unsure of the reasons and also if he was seeking any professional help.

The source said only once the local police authorities have completed their investigations will it be possible to determine whether the death was caused by suicide.

Singh’s passing was likewise mourned by the ICC. They said they are heartbroken, and their prayers go out to his family and friends, as well as Abu Dhabi Cricket and everyone involved in the tournament. The game continued as planned because his family and Abu Dhabi Cricket had requested it.

Before relocating to the UAE in the early 2000s, Mohan worked closely with former BCCI chief curator Daljit Singh in Mohali. Daljit was stunned to learn about Mohan's death after 22 years of service to Indian cricket. He said Singh passed too soon and it is extremely sad.
