A 37-year-old Nigerian man made an attempt on his life upon receiving news of his parents’ deaths in an auto crash, the Delhi Police said in a statement on Sunday, March 26, 2023.
The police said that on March 18, 2023, the man, identified simply as Ndinojuo, jumped from the second floor of a building in outer Delhi’s Nihal Vihar area, adding that he was recovering.
Harendra Kumar Singh, who is the Deputy Commissioner of Police (Outer), said that the Nihar Vihar police station got a PCR call about the event.
He said that when he got to the scene, the Nigerian man was hurt and pleading for help.
Ndinojuo was taken to Sanjay Gandhi Memorial Hospital, where he was treated, the DCP said.
In his police statement, Ndinojuo said that on March 18, he got information that his father and mother had died in an accident at their native place.
He was suffering from depression, and this news distressed him so much that he jumped from the second floor of the building, the DCP said.
Statements of neighbors were also recorded, and they corroborated the victim’s statement, the police said, adding that no foul play was suspected during the inquiry.
