Davindra Boodram
Did you all read the papers? I couldn't believe this man killed himself through Skype while his girlfriend watched!
A 34-year-old Tacarigua joiner who previously threatened to commit suicide yesterday made good on his promise and hanged himself at his home.
Davindra Boodram killed himself during a Skype online video chat with his girlfriend in the US.
Skype is an internet program that allows users to make free audio and video calls through their computers.
Boodram, police said, ended his life around 11.45 a.m. At his Bally Trace, Huggins Street, Tacarigua, home.
During the conversation, police said, Boodram took an electrical cord which he used as a clothesline in his room and hanged himself while his girlfriend looked on through the video feed.
The woman telephoned one of Boodram's sisters and informed her what happened.
Boodram's relatives, who live nearby, rushed inside and found him hanging from a rafter.
