Malappuram: A man was found dead in the bathroom hours before his wedding on Wednesday. Jithin (30) from Kummaniparambu, Karipur in Kondotty, was found with his wrist slit. The initial assumption is that he died by suicide, though the reason remains unclear. Jithin, who worked in Sharjah, had returned to his home for the wedding.

On Wednesday morning, Jithin went to the bathroom for a shower before the ceremony but did not come out. When relatives broke open the door, they found his lifeless body. Neither his family nor friends know of any issues that would have led him to take the extreme step. The body was moved to Manjeri Medical College Hospital. The police said they would examine Jibin's phone call records to find any clue that led to his death.
