Hyderabad: An engineering student from Hyderabad committed suicide by hanging herself at her residence after posting on Instagram that she was 'happy to be afraid' and would 'quit this…SOON'.

Identified as C Mounika, the 21-year-old was a B-tech final year student. She hanged herself following an alleged scolding by her mother.

"Nowadays I am afraid to be happy. I don’t know why people don't want to look at me when I am happy in my life. Every moment in my life is going so worst. I am just passing out through them…by learning lessons from everything in my life. I hope I will quit this…," said Mounika in an Instagram post ahead of committing suicide.

In another incident, reported from the city, a man committed suicide and captured the entire act on his cellphone. Shahed Hussain, who ended his life at his store, said that he was being 'tortured over money' by some of his relatives.

Later, a suicide note was found near him where he accused five of his relatives for torturing and driving him to commit suicide.
