New Delhi: A Class XI student living in Ghaziabad died after falling from the 21st floor of a residential building in the ATS Advantage Society. Police found a note in the boy’s pocket suggesting the possibility of suicide.

According to eyewitnesses, they last saw the boy with two of his friends on the 24th floor of the building, talking and taking photographs. One of the friends said that the victim stepped on the pretext of an errand. A few minutes later, they saw commotion below the building and realised that their friend had fallen off the 21st floor, NDTV reported.

The boy was immediately rushed to Shanti Gopal Hospital, where doctors discovered a suicide note in his pocket. While the initial evidence points towards suicide, the police are not ruling out any other possibilities.
