The entire KNUST student community was thrown into a sad mood
when a student of the Geography and Rural Development Department of the Kwame
Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) confirmed dead on Thursday,
28th September, 2017 at the University Hospital.
It was alleged that he committed suicide.
The male student (name withheld) believed to be in either level
300 or 400 was rushed to the University Hospital by students after being found
unconscious in the washroom of the Central Classroom Block (CCB) with a bottle
of insecticide liquid by him.
Speaking
to myJCR News, a student who saw him being received in the hospital said he was
“unconscious and foaming in his mouth and nose”.
Further investigations by myJCR News revealed that the deceased
student may have taken volumes of the insecticide liquid which resulted in his
death.
It was also discovered that the deceased had previously visited
the hospital for psychiatry related issue few years ago but whether his state
of mind led him to drink the poisonous liquid, we are yet to know as
investigations continue.
