Once her roommate left, she is said to have spoken to her parents by phone before consuming poison. <br /><br />Moments later, she also hanged herself from the ceiling fan, police said. <br /><br />In a one-page suicide note in Kannada, Roja reportedly spoke about the despair which drove her to suicide.

Since she failed to fulfill her parents’ dreams, she decided to commit suicide, police quoted her as having written in the note. <br /><br />The suicide came to light when the hostel warden, who was on a routine inspection, saw Roja hanging from the ceiling fan when she peeped through the window, police added. <br /><br />Woman murdered<br /><br />A home-alone woman was found murdered at her residence in BTM Layout on Wednesday morning. <br /><br />The victim, Nusrath Sultana, 45, was a resident of KEB Colony near BTM Layout 1st Stage. The murder occurred around 6.30 am after her son Imran Delvi, 21, left home for a private hospital on Bannerghatta Road for internship, said the police. <br /><br />Domestic maid Selvi noticed Sultana lying on the floor with her throat slit when she came to work around 8.30 am.<br /><br />“It is not a murder for gain as all her valuables are intact.
