Dumped on Facebook, IIM Bangalore student kills herself



What seemed "independence" for her boyfriend turned out to be a reason enough for an MBA student to kill herself. Depressed after the break-up with her boyfriend, first-year student Malini Murmu, 22, hanged herself in her hostel room in the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore on Monday evening.


Police said Murmu, 22, a native of Jamshedpur in Jharkhand, found out from Facebook on Sunday that her boyfriend had dumped her.
Police said after the couple had an argument, which resulted in the breakup, her boyfriend had left a post on Facebook saying, "Feeling super cool today. Dumped my new ex-girlfriend. Happy independence day."
Soon, Murmu stopped attending classes. Noticing her absence, her classmates went to her room, No. 421 in the college hostel, and called out to her, to no avail. Later, Murmu was found hanging from the ceiling fan by security guards.
The victim had left a suicide note on her laptop, saying her boyfriend had left her and she was killing herself over it. She'd also scribbled 'He ditched me' on a board in her room. She had no roommates, police said. Further investigation is on.
