“On Monday, at 14th Avenue, Gaur City 2, under the jurisdiction of Bisrakh Police Station, the man identified as Shiva committed suicide by jumping from the 21st floor. He was taken for treatment but was declared dead by doctors,” Goyal said.
Shiva was from Mathura and was pursuing an MBBS degree from a private college in Delhi, having joined the 2015 batch. However, he had to suspend his medical training after developing mental health issues in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic. These issues caused him significant distress and depression.
No suicide note was found at the scene. Shiva’s family members were present when the incident happened. The police have taken his body into custody and sent it for a post-mortem examination.
An investigation is ongoing to determine the cause of the suicide.
Additional DCP Goyal said that the family is cooperating with the police and that further enquiries are underway.
