Cried out for his aunt before jumping

Parents have no clue about reason for his suicide: SI

Aththa aththa aththa (aunt in Telugu), were the last words of Bhavan before he jumped to death. The incident happened a few hours before he was supposed to go home to Warangal for the summer vacation.

Bhavan who had come to his maternal uncle Vikram’s home on Thursday evening had spent his time jovially, cracking jokes with his uncle, his wife Ramya and their relative.

Bhavan’s father works in the armed reserve wing of the police department, while his mother Usharani is a government teacher.

Bhavan had always been pampered by his maternal grandparents and uncle Vikram from childhood and so it was his regular routine to come to their house at KPHB before going to his parents. His grandparents, who were very fond of Bhavan, had been informed of his sudden death, while they were away from the city to attend a relative’s wedding.

A relative said that he was very normal and calm the whole day and did not complain or speak about any unusual things. “He had biryani with the uncle’s family at home and slept after watching cricket. Saikiran slept a little early as he had a leg injury, while Bhavan remained awake watching cricket,” they said.

Another relative who visited the family said that he woke up from his sleep suddenly, as if he had had a nightmare, and was shocked that it had affected him so badly as to make him take this extreme step.

Bhavan is remembered as a jovial student who is very good at academics. “Though he was a happy-go-lucky kind of person, he was focussed on his studies and had high aims for the future,” said his friends.

The body was handed over to the family, after an autopsy.
