A student from Bengaluru commits suicide






A student, age 22, committed suicide. harassment as a motive. Before taking his own life, he penned in an anguished statement, "I have no other option other than this." We learn the reasoning behind his drastic action in a brief, three-line memo.

"Sorry Mom and Dad for whatever I did," the suicide letter stated. There isn't anything more I can do but this. I am unable to repay more loans in my name.



A Chinese mobile application called Slice and Kiss that offers loans hounded Tejas, a student of engineering in Bengaluru, till he committed suicide.

Tejas hanged himself in his home in Bengaluru's Jalahalli while he was a student of engineering at Nitte Meenakshi College in Yelahanka. The man's frustration with the increasing harassment by Chinese lending app executives and his inability to repay other loans were evident in the letter.


In the police complaint, Tejas's relatives claimed that he had taken out a loan through the Chinese app "Slice and Kiss" for some cash. He was unable to pay back the money, nevertheless. Gopinath, Tejas's father, intervened and promised to repay the money in installments on his son's behalf after subsequently learning about the entire situation.


According to the FIR, which was filed in Kannada, the agents allegedly used blackmail by threatening to reveal the student's private photos stored on his phone if he didn't pay back the loan.


Gopinath had asked for more time to pay the bill three days before Tejas passed away, but the creditors wouldn't bend.


The app agents allegedly called Tejas multiple times on Tuesday night, which is what presumably prompted him to act in such a drastic manner.



According to reports, the agents used blackmail by threatening to release the student's private mobile photos if he didn't pay back the loan.
