Nagpur: Three suicides, including one of an MBBS student and another of an MBA graduate, were reported at different locations in the city on Thursday. 

After registering the cases as accidental deaths, police have started investigations.

In the first incident, Jajzlan Kazi, 21, who was a second year student of MBBS at Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital (IGMCH), hanged himself from a hook on the wall in his study room at his Ayappa Nagar residence on Thursday.

This was the second case of suicide by an MBBS student in the recent past.

On Friday, the atmosphere at the IGMCH mortuary was emotionally charged with classmates and teachers offering their condolences to Kazi’s relatives.

After returning from namaz in the afternoon, Kazi went straight to his room around 2pm and took the extreme step, a relative told TOI.

Kazi’s father Jawed Hussain, a lab assistant at a college in Gandhibagh, said, “I left for work in the morning and after that, went to IGMCH to deposit Kazi’s fees. As the clerk was not in his seat, I went home and learnt that Kazi is in his room since afternoon. I knocked at his door, but he didn’t respond. I peeped from the rear window of his room and saw something suspicious. My wife thought that he was sleeping but I insisted that the door be broken and when we did that, we found our son lying dead. I still can’t understand why he took such a drastic step. He should have at least spoken to us if he was going through any problem. My son was a bright student.”

Kazi’s last rites were performed on Friday in the presence of his family, relatives and friends.

In another incident, Mrunali Dongre, 24 committed suicide on Thursday by hanging herself just days after her parents started looking for a groom for her.

Mrunali, an MBA in finance and marketing, was found hanging from the ceiling fan in her bedroom in Bhilgaon.

Cops said when Mrunali’s parents asked her for her preference regarding the groom, she did not respond. Though no suicide note was found at the spot, cops have taken Mrunali’s phone into custody to investigate the case thoroughly.

In the third incident, Priya alias Avni Chudaman alias Deshmukh, 32, committed suicide by hanging herself at her home when she was alone. Priya took the extreme step when her father-in-law had gone to bring his grand children from school.

Cops said the reason behind the suicide is still unknown. No note was found from the spot.
