Unemployed sick man ends life

A young man under treatment at Jinnah Hospital got tired of the disease and committed suicide by jumping into the sea from the Native Jetty bridge. The brother of 27-year-old Shahzeb son of Ilyas, said that his brother was under treatment in Jinnah Hospital for ten days.

He sat in a rickshaw from Jinnah Hospital at 11 o'clock on Sunday morning and reached Native Jetty where he took out his urine drain and threw his mobile phone and jumped into the sea. The deceased Shahzeb was unemployed for two years. He used to go to the shop with his father. Edhi volunteers are searching for Shahzeb's body.
