Hyderabad, Feb 2 (IBNS): An engineering student from IIT Hyderabad at Kandi in Sangareddy district was suspected to have committed suicide by jumping from the fourth floor of the college building, media reports said on Saturday.

As per The Deccan Chronicle report, the student had sent an email to his friend informing him that he was feeling depressed and is taking his own life.

M. Anirudhya, who lived in Trimulgherry and was a native of Guntur district in Andhra Pradesh,  was studying Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering course in the prestigious institute. He was in his final year.

After the incident, students informed about the issue to the college authority and the police later arrived in the scene.

Sub-inspector Srikanth of the Sangareddy (Rural) police told The Deccan Chronicle that initially there was some confusion about whether the boy had slipped from the fourth floor or had ended life. 

Responding to a query, the SI told the newspaper, “Late on Friday it was found that Anirudhya committed suicide. He sent an email to one of his friends, informing that he is undergoing depression and is taking his own life. The boy did not mention any other details in the email. No information is available yet if he was poor in studies or any other reason drove him to take the extreme step. The investigation is still under way.”
