Dubai, May 25
A debt-ridden Indian mechanic killed himself in Bahrain, media reported on Monday.
Pramu
Sudheer, 41, was found hanging from a ceiling fan in his Muharraq City
labour accommodation along with a suicide note on Saturday morning, the
Gulf Daily News reported.
"There was a suicide note that said he
was in a lot of debt which he could not repay," said Prasanna Kumar, a
cousin of the deceased.
Sudheer had been in Bahrain for seven
years, according to his cousin, but had not been able to return home to
visit his family even once in all that time.
"He always said that
he was in a lot of debt and everything that he earned was not enough to
meet his expenses. Now I hear that he owed thousands of dinars to many
people," Kumar added.
Sudheer was originally from Kerala and leaves behind his wife and two children aged 12 and seven
