Ghaziabad:
A management institute student committed suicide by hanging himself from the ceiling fan of his bedroom in Ghaziabad.
According to the police, 22-year-old Punit Mishra, was pursuing his Post-Graduate Diploma in Business Management (PGDBM) as a distant learning student of the Institute of Management Studies (IMT), Ghaziabad.
His death was detected on Monday morning when a relative, Anil, came to meet him and despite persistent knocking Punit did not open the room door. He peeped inside the room from the roof of a neighbouring house and found him hanging from the ceiling fan.
Anil called the police, who broke open the door and took the body for post-mortem examination.
