According to the police, Husain had been struggling with depression for the past six months and was allegedly addicted to the mobile game BGMI (formerly PUBG). “He had taken a loan, and we suspect that his inability to repay it, led to his decision to end his life,” the police stated. The police have sent his phone for forensic analysis to determine the extent of the loan he had taken. “We are looking into his finances and have sent his mobile phone for examination,” an official added. The police will now record the statement of the family members of the deceased.
