That's really strange. Why a suicide and why right before the match?
Hope he recovers and get past his problems, whatever they might have been!

I am so shocked about this!!! Why would he do that?

[persepolisfan]

poor guy. i really hope that he will be fine, and like said before, can getover his problems.
a personal anecdote: at my school, there was a boy from my grade last year in high school, that was on the baseball team. All of a sudden, during practice, he said he was going to kill himself according to what his teammates said. he ran out of school and went to the top floor of a hotel right next to our school, adjacent to where my highschool soccer team was practicing. then suddenly i heard the loudest scream ever then a thump. he died in a hospital. because of his suicide, his mother recently commited suicide. so sad really. Suicide is never ever the option in my humble opinion.

Very sad news. Any idea what may have been behind this suicidal act?

[tashakor]

I wish him a full recovery. Nothing gets me more sad then those who attempt or succeed in suicide.
