Pathanamthitta: In an unfortunate incident, a Casualty Medical Officer at Pathanamthitta General Hospital committed suicide by hanging himself from the ceiling in his rented room in Punnalathupadi on Wednesday. The reason behind his suicide is unclear. 

The doctor has been identified as the medical officer of the casualty department who worked for three years at the general hospital. He was a native of Kaimanam in Thiruvananthapuram who rented the room here due to his work at the hospital.
