Chennai: In an unfortunate incident, a postgraduate student at Omandurar Government Medical College allegedly committed suicide by administering a lethal injection into his body causing a drug overdose.
The police found the victim in the room with his hands tied with a black waist cord. An empty syringe was found next to his body prompting the investigators to determine that the death was a suicide. However, the syringe has been sent to the forensic department for a medical analysis to determine the harmful substance it contained.
According to the preliminary investigation by the police, the student took his own life due to a family conflict that arose from his wish to marry his uncle's daughter, which was ultimately rejected. This denial led to a dispute within his family. The student was in his first year of PG studies at the medical college and a native of Ezhayiram Pannai in Virudhunagar.
