PUNE: A 23-year-old software profession­al working with Tata Consultanc­y Services (TCS) committed suicide in his flat, the police said on Friday. Abhishek Kumar, a native of Kanpur, ended his life on Thursday by hanging himself from the ceiling in the flat at Hinjewadi IT Park.

The incident occurred barely four days after Infosys techie Rasila Raju OP was strangled to death by a security guard on the company’s Hinjewadi campus.

According to the police, Abhishek was sitting with roommates at his flat they were living in on rent.

He later went to his room saying he wanted to sleep and locked it from the inside.

“After sometime, Abhishek’s friends, who were not in the flat, received a message from him saying he was going to kill himself. The friends then alerted roommates, who went into Abhishek’s room from the window and found him hanging,” said Yogesh Ramekar, sub inspector with Hinjewadi police station.

Ramekar said Abhishek left no suicide note even as the preliminar­y investigat­ions suggested he ended his life owing to depression after breaking-up his relationsh­ip with a girl.
