the circumstances surrounding the death of the young man.The mother of the
deceased disclosed that her son had a history of bad temper but could not say
who or what drove him to commit suicide. She said: “I returned from the market
where I went to sell grains. I was drenched by the rain so I went straight to
the bathroom to remove my cloth. After that, I tried to enter my room but it
was locked from the inside.“I banged and called out his name but there was no
response.” She added that some of her neighbours said they heard the deceased
singing along with a song on the radio earlier in the day and that when he
stopped, they assumed he had taken a nap.When the lifeless body was found
dangling in the room after the door was forcefully opened, the matter was
reported to the Police.
