New Delhi  A youth suffering from depression on account of amnesia committed suicide after hanging himself from a ceiling fan inside his residence at south Delhi, a police officer said on Saturday.

The police said the incident occurred on Friday around 8 p.m in Pushp Vihar sector-1 area, when Anil Guleria went to check his son, identified as Ankush Guleria, in his room and found him hanging with a ceiling fan.

"Ankush Guleria was working as a compounder in Sir Ganga Ram Hospital for the last couple of years. He suffered from amnesia which caused acute depression in him," he said.
