A man committed suicide by hanging from the branch of a tree in Nandagudi, after fighting with friends while playing volleyball on Saturday.
The deceased, Murali (21), was employed at a petrol bunk.
The Nandagudi police said Murali was addicted to alcohol and was irregular at work. His mother was unhappy over his behaviour.
On Saturday, she scolded him for not going to work. Upset over this, he went to play volleyball with his friends. But, there, in turn, he quarrelled with his friends over a trivial issue. He was depressed due to all these incidents and decided to end his life, the police said.
The police did not find a suicide note from the spot.
