A 21-year-old woman was among two people who committed suicide in the city in separate incidents on Friday.

A 26-year-old man hung himself at his residence in Kurubarahalli near Basaveshwaranagar. Police suspect the man ended his life since he was unable to repay his debts.

Rajesh, of JC Nagar, recorded a 2.49-minute selfie video before ending his life. He said he was harassed by a financier Kiran, who had lent him Rs 25,000, because he was unable to repay the sum.

Rajesh also said he was rejected by a girl despite his sacrifices to win her love. He said the girl made him suffer. The youngster also apologised to his parents for his suicide.

A police official said the incident took place late on Friday night.
