University student commits suicide
11 June 2010 / TODAY’S ZAMAN, İSTANBUL
A university student jumped off the roof of a six-story building on Tuesday in İzmir’s Bornova district allegedly for lying to his parents about university.
Yiğit İlhan (24) allegedly committed suicide fearing he wouldn’t be able to finish university because of his end of year exam results. He had reportedly told his parents, who live in the southern province of Muğla, that he had passed his exams and had successfully finished university and had a job in İzmir.
Police and medical teams arrived at scene immediately after being notified of the incident, but İlhan had already died. Police officers carried out an investigation at the scene and found İlhan’s bag on the roof. Forty antidepressant tablets were discovered in the bag, but there was no suicide note.
