AHMEDABAD: A 34-year-old man, Jitendra Parmar, committed suicide on Tuesday by hanging himself at a pathology lab in the New Ranip area of the city. Police said the likely reason for his suicide was that his third marriage was on the verge of failure.

Parmar, an office-boy in the pathology laboratory, had married twice earlier but both marriages ended in divorce. He remarried three months ago but this union was also on the verge of failure. These details emerged from the questioning of Parmar’s relatives.

According to the FIR lodged at Ranip police station, Parmar went to the laboratory in New Ranip in the wee hours of Tuesday. When the pathology laboratory owner, Amit Prajapati , went to the premises on Tuesday morning, he found the body hanging inside.

Ranip police brought the body down and sent it for a postmortem to Civil Hospital in Asarwa. The owner of a shop nearby told police he saw Parmar open the shutter of the lab, but thought Parmar may have come there for some work.
