A young man who apparently attempted to commit suicide about two days ago in Karachi breathed his last during treatment on Saturday.

The 21-year-old had been found with a gunshot injury in mysterious circumstances from inside his car parked outside his residence in Karachi’s posh locality a couple of days ago. He was immediately taken to a private hospital on National Stadium Road for treatment where he died on Saturday.

A senior police official, who wished not to be named, said the man belonged to an influential family and had been suffering from depression. Circumstantial evidence suggested that he while using a licensed pistol shot himself once in his head.
