Our religion not supporting suicide. Come and join in our religion. free from unwanted extreme steps
Shocking.. Rest in peace
Too young. How he got courage to do this extreme action. Strange
If he spoke to his parents, they might prevent suicide and console him. Primary evidences shows he hadnt proper talking term with his parents or he scared to tell everthing to his parents.
