An unidentified man was on Saturday discovered to have committed suicide by hanging from a mango tree on an undeveloped parcel of land along railway line at Alalubosa GRA, Ibadan in Oyo State.
Information gathered by Sunday Tribune revealed that the body of the deceased was found where it was dangling from the tree by one of the people who had their shops along the rail line, when he went to defecate.
The person who noticed the body reportedly raised the alarm, attracting other workers such as mechanics and furniture makers around the place popularly called Mile 110.
The workers were said to have reported at Iyaganku Division of Oyo State Police Command but were told that the place where the body hanged was under the jurisdiction of Nigeria Railway Corporation police.
They reportedly went to Dugbe Railway police station but as at the time of filing this report, Sunday Tribune learnt that none of the police officers from the station had visited the scene.
Also, when Sunday Tribune went to the scene at about 5p.m., the body was still found hanging from the tree while flies buzzed round his pair of trousers which was wet with urine.
