AI staffer kills himself after losing job

New Delhi: A former Air India employee committed suicide at his home in Najafgarh last week apparently due to a financial crunch. He was among 800 people whose services had been terminated over a month ago.

Police said Rajesh Kumar (46) was found hanging from a ceiling fan. While cops did not recover any suicide note, family members alleged that Rajesh was depressed over losing his job. They said he worked as a driver of a loader vehicle at the airport. His son had taken admission Delhi University recently and he had to borrow money for his education.

On October 1, his wife had gone to his room to wake him up but found him hanging. She raised the alarm and called her son and father-in-law. A team from the Najafgarh police station brought down the body and sent it for postmortem at a local hospital.
