Faizan Ahmed Suicide

The Calcutta High Court has set up a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the death of IIT Kharagpur student Faizan Ahmed.

IIT Kharagpur student death case: Soon after the college claimed the 23-year-old student died by suicide in October last year, his parents had filed a petition in the Calcutta High Court saying he was murdered.

The additional superintendent of police in Bengal's Paschim Medinipur district also filed a report on the progress of the investigation into the unnatural death of third-year student from Assam, Faizan Ahmed.

Faizan Ahmed, a 23-year-old mechanical engineering student from Assam, died by suicide, the police had said.

Multiple incidents of deaths by suicide have shaken the campuses of India's premier science and technology institute in recent months. Last month, two IIT students were found dead on two separate campuses.
