Iraqi youngman commits suicide due to family quarrel

Diyala (IraqiNews.com) An Iraqi youngman in Diyala province made suicide by hanging due to family quarrel.

Security source told Iraqi News (IraqiNews.com) on Thursday “Mahmoud al-Sanjri, 17, committed suicide by hanging inside his room after quarreling with his family in Baquba city, capital of Diyala province.”

“The police, after being informed, transported the dead body to the morgue and launched investigations over the incident,” the source added.

Psychologists and sociologists attribute the rise in the suicides in Iraq over the past few years especially among the youth category to several social, economic factors, and lack of jobs and poverty.
