A 27-year-old software engineer died on Thursday evening after falling from the 10th floor of an apartment complex in Puppalguda under Narsingi police station limits.

The deceased was identified as Vishnu Vardhan Reddy, who lived with his parents and brother in the flat.

According to the police, Reddy returned home from work in the evening and went to his room. He did not come to dinner and was believed to have gone to bed. Later that night, his brother noticed he wasn’t in bed. After making the call, he found his cell phone lying on the balcony and looking down saw it lying on the ground floor of the apartment complex.

On receiving the information, the Narsingh police rushed to the spot and sent the body for post-mortem before starting the investigation.

Preliminary investigations indicate that Reddy had been suffering from depression for some time. However, no suicide note was found at the scene.
