A 26-year-old body builder in Bengaluru committed suicide upon hearing that his girlfriend was getting married without his consent. The accident took place in the Mahalakshmi Layout district where the young man named Kiran was living together with his family. Kiran allegedly spent three years in a relationship with the woman, a fact that made him so distraught by the sudden announcement of her engagement. Upon learning of her forthcoming marriage, he went home looking upset and trapped himself in his room where he was eventually discovered hanging by his family members.
