IT employee jumps to death from office building
CHENNAI: In the fourth incident in a month, an engineering graduate employed with an IT firm committed suicide by jumping from the terrace of a building at Kanthanchavadi on Rajiv Gandhi Salai (Old Mahabalipuram Road) on Sunday.
A Naveen Kumar, 28, of Vellore district jumped to death at 12.02pm from the terrace of Prince Info City building on OMR, allegedly after a tiff with his girlfriend.
Police said Naveen had gone to the 11th floor of the building with a co-worker. He told his co-worker he needed to make a call and went up to the terrace. He left his mobile on the terrace and then jumped to death. A security guard, who heard a loud thud, rushed to the parking area and found Naveen lying in a pool of blood.
After checking call details, police found that he had called his girlfriend at least four times on Sunday. "He was not in good terms with his girlfriend for the past one week as they had a tiff over their wedding," said an investigating officer.
Though the gate to the terrace was shut and the security guard at the main gate keeps the key, some employees had managed to break the lock to smoke on the terrace," said a security guard.
A colleague of Naveen said the latter had been depressed since morning. Though his shift was over at 11.30am, he did not leave the office. Naveen was employed on a sub-contract basis with Maersk for the past four months. He stayed at Kannagi Nagar. http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/IT-employee-jumps-to-death-from-office-building/articleshow/21075515.cms
