Pune A man, described as “mentally unstable,” reportedly died by suicide early Thursday morning after jumping from the 10th floor of a government hospital in Pune, police confirmed.
The deceased had initially been detained by the railway police on September 5 while attempting to end his life. Given his unstable mental state, he was subsequently transferred to the state-run Sassoon General Hospital, according to an official from the Bundgarden police station.
