We live in trying times, with a slowing economy and other various hardships that accompany us day in and out. For some of us, these days can take a tragic toll.
Some souls contemplate the extreme. Even thinking of taking their own lives so that their agony could finally be over.
Just moments ago, an individual present in one of the busiest thoroughfares in Islamabad, the F6 Supermarket area, tried taking his own life.
It should be mentioned that the place is frequented by hundreds of people, and if it wasn’t for the quick thinking of one person there, the area could’ve witnessed a bigger tragedy.
A man, clad in white shalwar kameez, quickly tackled a could-be suicide victim, in full public view.
Here’s the video of the incident:
This is a developing story. It will be updated as more details come in.
I am a witness to the incident. He was not planning suicide but when the police arrived he tried to cut his veins of the arm. He was talking to someone on mobile for a very long time and shouting at the phone. While talking on the phone he had a large dagger in his hand. The person who caught him was also a policeman in civilian dress.
