Daijiworld Media Network - Kadaba (SP)

Kadaba, Oct 16: A resident Nagri near Alankaru in the taluk ended his life by hanging himself on Monday October 15. Before resorting to this extreme step, he had dispatched WhatsApp messages to his friends, informing them of his decision to hang himself inside the forest area at Kandlaje.

Vinay (35), son of Kushalappa Devadiga from Nagri, it is said, was fed up by his liquor addiction and his inability to wriggle out of it. He was unmarried. He hanged himself near Panjody, Nagri near Alankaru.

Vinay was unmarried. Till a few years back, he was operating an auto rickshaw. Later, he began to work as coolie on daily wage basis at Campco's Alankaru office. He also had undergone a camp at Mangaluru for ridding himself of the liquor addiction.

As per information, he was cheerful till Monday afternoon, and his friends did not have any inkling of what was in his mind. At around 2 pm, his friends got his WhatsApp message stating that he had decided to end his life by hanging himself near Kandlaje forest near Sharavoor school. His friends tried to contact him immediately. He received a few of the calls, it is said, but he could not convey anything other than sobbing continuously. His close ones then went searching for him, and found his body hanging from a cashew tree near the water tank of Panjody colony.

The deceased is survived by parents and a sister. On the basis of a report filed by the uncle of the deceased, the police registered a case of unnatural death, visited the spot, and conducted inquest.

    I am glad to hear that he was unmarried.

    An alcoholic that has wife/children, destroys the joy of living in his dependents. There is no bigger curse for a family than having an alcoholic head of the family.

    Alcohol is no good - whether in big quantity or a teaspoonful.

    Kick alcohol out of your life before it takes over your life!

    Alcohol is the most divine gift God has bestowed on humankind. Please do not blame alcohol just for the reason that you can not handle it.

    It takes you very near God and brings you back...many a times.
    However, if you want to stay back it's your choice...Not Officer's Choice.
    Is what Shankar Sir is trying to convey.
    Right Sir?
    Drinking is simple.It's those around who make it complicated.
