Young man commits suicide over stock losses

A young man has committed suicide allegedly after losing huge amount of money in share trade as the market crashed recently.

Rony Zaman, 23, committed suicide by hanging in his rented house at Arichpur in Tongi near Dhaka on Saturday night. His body was brought to his parents late on Sunday night for burial at family graveyard in Pirojpur town.

Lamenting the death Rony's mother Shaharannussa said share market crash had taken away the life of her son. She said her son during telephonic talks from Dhaka expressed worries and used to cry at the loss of about Tk 5 lakh in the share business.

His newly married wife Ananya Zaman, teacher of a primary school in Gaibandha, burst into tears saying Rony could not withstand the shock of loss of money. He committed suicide with the feeling that he would never be able to repay the money he borrowed and invested in the share market.
