Though he mailed this message, his threat was not taken seriously because he had a history of depression.Later on Tuesday, Sandeep was found hanging in his hostel room.The deceased student had joined the IISc in 2019 in the Department of Computational and Data Sciences and hails from Chhattisgarh.–IANSsth\/dpb\/bg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bengaluru, Aug 19 (IANS) A 24-year-old student in the city-based Indian Institute of Science (IISc) committed suicide fearing that he may have contracted coronavirus after talking to a friend who exhibited some symptoms, an official said on Wednesday.”Sandeep, a BTech student from IISc has committed suicide fearing coronavirus infection,” confirmed a police official to IANS.Police [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.9 -
