New Delhi: Depressed
over failure in exam, a student of Zakir Hussain College in
central Delhi jumped to his death from an hospital's third floor
after slashing his wrist in an unsuccessful suicide bid, police
said Thursday.
Rocky Rai, 22, a B.A. second year student who hailed from Bihar,
ended his life around 10.30 p.m. Wednesday.
"He committed suicide by jumping off from the third floor of the
Lok Nayak Jayaprakash Narayan Hospital," said a police official.
Rocky was living with his aunt at her house in Rajokri area near
Vasant Kunj of south Delhi.
"He had been depressed for some time after he was declared failed
in his last examination," said the official.
On Wednesday, around 10.15 a.m. he allegedly slashed his left
wrist with a blade in the college premises and was rushed to
hospital by a friend.
"In the hospital, doctors reported that before cutting his wrist
he had taken some sedative. His condition had become normal in the
hospital by evening and his relatives were with him," said the
official.
"Around 10.30 p.m., his attendant raised an alarm when he could
not find Rocky in the ward. An hospital employee found his body
lying on the ground. He was rushed to emergency where he was
declared dead," added the official.
