The outlet reported on Monday as new facts emerged that the 25-year-old wrote a letter stating he was ending his life due to his father. 

He reportedly wrote in a letter he shared on his WhatsApp status: “If I decide to end my life, it’s because I’m not at all stable at home. And the only responsible person is no one but my father.

“Yes, my father whom I do not respect at all. A father who is not my idol. A father who does not care about the pain of his children. A father who only sees his own interest. A father who does not love the mother of his children.”

The student also reportedly wrote: “With this little text, I apologize to all the people who have suffered because of me. Throughout my life, I have regretted coming into the world. A life that is so beautiful. A life where everyone wants to enjoy. A life that everyone would like to live for a long time.”
