Bengaluru-based student commits suicide in BCM hostel

A gruesome incident has taken place in the room of BCM hostel for girls near Kurunjibaug in Sulya taluk of Dakshina Kannada district.

Sonia (18), a first PUC student of Sharada Pre-Graduate College here, committed suicide at BCM Hostel in Kurunjibhag Sulya.

When a classmate went to fetch the dinner plate in her room, the door was locked. No matter how many times I knocked on the door, it did not open. She got suspicious because the door was not opened even when she came back to the room after the meal, so she informed the warden of the dormitory.

When the staff came and broke the door, the suicide came to light. The exact cause of death is not known. A case has been registered at Sulya Police Station.
