Padubidri: A 29-year-old debt-ridden youngster, Nasrullah, allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself at home in Padubidri on Wednesday evening, as he was unable to repay the borrowed funds.
Nasrullah had been working abroad for some time and returned to his native place three months ago. He had taken loans from banks and locals money-lenders for his work while in Padubidri and was extremely upset as the lenders kept visiting his house demanding clearance of the loans, police have said.
On Wednesday evening, the depression led the youngster to hang himself from the fan in his bedroom using a chudidar dupatta, the officers added.
A case has been filed at the Padubidri Police Station and investigation of the case is underway.

Mumbai (PTI): Former army chief Gen (retd) Manoj Naravane on Wednesday supported RSS leader Dattatreya Hosabale's stand on the desirability of willingness to have a dialogue with Pakistan, stating that friendship between the two peoples can lead to better bilateral relations.
"Common people live on both sides of the border, with common problems of 'roti, kapda and makan (food, clothing and shelter). Common man has nothing to do with politics. When there is friendship between the two peoples, there will also be friendship between the two nations," Naravane told PTI on the sidelines of an event here.
"It is a right thing. People-to-people contact is important," he added.
People-to-people contact is key to breaking the deadlock with Pakistan and there should always be a window for dialogue, Hosabale said in an interview to PTI Videos on Tuesday. Pakistan's military and political leadership have lost India's confidence and it is time for civil society to lead the way, the RSS leader said.
Naravane said there should be a people-to-people connect between the two countries, be it through 'track two' diplomacy or even a sporting event.
"Even our people should know that those staying across the border are not sworn enemies," the former army chief said.
"Disputes should be resolved through discussion, but this does not mean we cannot use military force. India is a country that speaks the language of peace but we will not hesitate to use force if needed," Naravane added.
