New Delhi : A woman suffering from jaundice committed suicide by jumping off the 12th floor of a west Delhi mall Wednesday, seriously injuring a man on whom she landed, police said.
The incident happened around 11 a.m. at Westend Mall in Janakpuri.
Police identified her as Chanchal Sharma, 24. The man was a mall employee, Sunil Kumar, 28. Both were rushed to a hospital where the woman was declared dead, a police officer said.
Kumar, who suffered head injuries, was later shifted to the Mata Chanan Devi Hospital. His condition was said to be critical but stable.
“Chanchal’s father told us that his daughter was sick and tired of jaundice for a month but that could not have been the reason she killed herself,” the officer said.
