Couldn't board flight to Germany, Mumbai student jumps to death from 45th floor
MUMBAI: A 22-year-old Mumbai man studying in Germany, who died by suicide at Goregaon East on Monday, was disallowed from boarding a flight to Germany as he couldn't produce a hard copy of his residence permit, police said.
Later the same day, he took an auto to a highrise at Goregaon East and jumped to his death from the 45th floor, police said. No suicide note was found and so the reason for the suicide as not been established. Aarey Police are probing whether he was tensed about being denied entry into the flight.
The youth was studying engineering and was in the fourth year. He was visiting his family based out of Andheri. His father works in an MNC.
On Monday, his family accompanied him to the airport as he was to fly back to Germany to study. But the airline denied him entry as he couldnt produce a hard copy of his residence permit necessary for students studying in Germany. He produced a soft copy on his phone but it was not accepted.
Police said he did not tell his family about being disallowed from boarding and they left for home. Later that day, he took an autorickshaw and went to Goregaon East where his family owned a vacant flat in a highrise. He stopped the auto outside the highrise and asked the driver to wait till he fetched change to pay for the fare.
But he did not come back. Later, staff at the highrise found that he had jumped off the 45th floor.
Aarey Colony Police were informed and he was rushed to a hospital. Doctors pronounced him dead. Police have recorded an accidental death case.
