Three persons commit suicide

Unemployment drove a 20-year-old youth of Old City to suicide.

The deceased, Md Haji, resorted to the extreme step by hanging to the ceiling at his residence in Talab Katta on Saturday night. According to Bhavani Nagar, Haji was reportedly rebuked by his parents for being unemployed and asked him to search for some works. His failure to find a job is suspected to have driven him to suicide.
