A heartbreaking news has emerged from Gurugram, Haryana. A 28-year-old software engineer committed suicide by hanging himself. This sent shockwaves through the entire area. Police were immediately informed. The body was taken into custody and sent for a post-mortem examination. The deceased’s name was Shubham Meena. He had a love marriage with a Delhi woman just six months earlier.
Shubham lived near Mata Colony in the Nayagaon area of Bhondsi. He was originally from Alwar, Rajasthan.

After a considerable delay, his wife began searching for him. When she found him on the second floor, she screamed. Shubham had made a noose from a window and was hanging from it.
Taking medication for depression
An investigating officer stated that preliminary investigations revealed that Shubham had been suffering from depression for some time. He was undergoing treatment and regularly taking medication. The investigation also revealed that Shubham had attempted suicide before. However, the police have not confirmed this. Police have recorded statements from his family and wife.
