MP youth commits suicide over humiliation

A Class 12 student Monday shot himself dead with a country-made revolver in Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh, said police.

He died on the spot.

The reason behind his taking the extreme step was not immediately clear. A few days ago, Sandeep Sen, who lived in Kotwali area, was thrashed by some people in public. Someone from the crowd recorded the incident on a mobile phone and released the video on social media where it went viral.

It is believed that unable to cope with his public humiliation, he committed suicide.
