Man commits suicide in Faridkot

Faridkot, February 16

A 35-year-old person allegedly committed suicide by jumping in front of a train in Faridkot on Saturday. The deceased, identified as Baldev Singh, was allegedly depressed over his wife’s going abroad for work, leaving three children behind.

Charan Singh, father of the victim, said his daughter-in-law had left for Malaysia on 2-year work permit, leaving her three children with their father in Faridkot. She had got one-year extension in her visa without taking her husband into confidence, making the victim upset. Moreover, it had become difficult for the victim to rear up the children.

The police have started investigation. — TNS
