Bengaluru: A 23-year-old man allegedly died by suicide in Attur Layout in Yelahanka New Town.
Police suspect a strained relationship may have led to the incident.
Abhishek, a BCom graduate working as a delivery executive at a private firm, reportedly made a video call to a woman he was in a relationship with on April 9.

Investigations revealed that Abhishek was in a relationship with the woman, but her family opposed it and had previously filed a police complaint against him. He was called to the police station, counselled, and warned.
Following this, the woman distanced herself from him. Despite repeated attempts by Abhishek to contact her, she reportedly refused to engage.
Yelahanka New Town police have registered a case of unnatural death. The deceased's family has, however, blamed the woman for his death.
