Hyderabad Suicide: A degree student died by suicide inside his hostel room in Hyderabad's Narayanaguda on Wednesday, May 14. According to the police, the reason for the suicide is still not known. The 20-year-old was identified as D Praveen Kumar.
He was a resident of Bhadradri-Kothagudem and was studying at a private college in the city. He stayed in a men's hostel in Narayanaguda.
The police said that Praveen Kumar's friends told he had been withdrawn and unhappy for a few days about an unidentified problem.
He passed away in the early hours of the morning while hanging from the hostel room's ceiling fan without his roommates around.
The hostel workers discovered him dead and informed the police and hostel administration. The Narayanaguda police arrived on the scene after receiving information and began an inquiry.
In another incident, a man allegedly killed his 15-year-old son and hanged himself to death at their house in Maharashtra's Palghar district. Police said on Thursday said the incident occurred in Pimpalsheth village in the tribal-dominated Jawhar taluka on Wednesday.
Accused, Sharad Bhoye (40), a conductor with the Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport Undertaking (BEST) who was under suspension, strangled his son Bhavesh with a wire rope.
Sub-inspector Anil Dighole said the accused had been under suspension for the last three months and was depressed about the situation.
As per preliminary probe, Bhoye had gone to his farmhouse around noon on Wednesday and strangled his son, a Class 10 student, after he returned home from school, and also banged the boy's body on the floor, causing fatal injuries.
The man then hanged himself from the ceiling in another room in the house, the official said.
