A first-year student at a college in Andhra Pradesh tragically died by suicide after jumping from the third floor of the building. The shocking incident was captured on a surveillance camera, sending shockwaves through the community.
The Narayana college student, a 16-year-old, walked out of the classroom at 10:15 a.m., stood on the ledge, and jumped off the third floor. He even took off his slippers before making the fateful leap. A video from the classroom shows the boy leaving the room while the class was in session, with his classmates walking out shortly after realizing what had happened.
Anantapur Rural sub-divisional police officer T Vekateshulu revealed that the student had just returned to college from Sankranti holidays on Thursday morning and died by suicide at 11:55 am. "After the holidays, this boy came to the college around 9:30 am on Thursday. While the class was going on, around 11:55 am, he suddenly came out from the classroom and jumped from the third floor," Venkateshulu told PTI.
Immediately after the incident, the college management rushed the injured student to a local hospital. However, doctors examined him and declared that he had tragically passed away. Police stated that the intermediate student hailed from Ramapuram village of Batthenapalli mandal in Sri Sathyasai District.
The heart-wrenching suicide of the young student, who was pursuing intermediate first year at Narayana Junior College, was captured on CCTV cameras. The footage shows him rising from his bench and proceeding to jump from the third floor without hesitation, leaving everyone in shock.
Authorities are currently taking a complaint from the boy's grieving parents to register a case and further investigate the circumstances surrounding this tragic event.
