IIT Delhi student dies by suicide on campus, no suicide note recovered
A 31-year-old MSc Physics student at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi tragically took his own life on Saturday morning, according to police. The deceased entered the campus around 8 am and proceeded to the Lecture Hall Complex, where he took a lift to the sixth floor. He then jumped from the front of the building. Police responded at 8:33 am and found the injured student, who was later pronounced dead at the campus hospital.
No suicide note has been recovered yet, and investigators are examining his mobile phone and institute records to determine the circumstances leading to his death. A crime team and forensic science laboratory unit have been called to the scene to collect evidence. The Institute expressed its condolences in a statement, offering support to the bereaved family.
This incident marks the second alleged suicide at the institute this year; a 19-year-old BTech student was found dead in his apartment in March.
