WARANGAL : A 23-year-old man hanged himself to death at his residence near Janmabhoomi Junction in Warangal. The victim, K Vishnuvardhan, an MBA student at a private college, took the extreme step because he was allegedly being harassed by executives of an online loan app, despite him clearing the loan.

According to Azam Jahi Mills Colony Inspector P Mallaiah, Vishnuvardhan had borrowed between Rs 1 lakh and Rs 2 lakh from the online application, which he spent on his personal needs.

“We suspect that the executives were harassing him over the phone despite him repaying the money. This might have caused him to kill himself.
