HYDERABAD – A 26-year-old former content creator was found dead by suicide at his residence in Hyderabad on Wednesday. The young man, who previously managed a popular YouTube channel, reportedly left behind a diary detailing a struggle with “unrequited love” for a woman working in the IT sector.
Discovery and Investigation
The incident came to light when family members discovered him unresponsive in his bedroom. Despite being rushed to a nearby hospital, he was declared brought dead.
Local police arrived at the scene shortly after and recovered a personal diary. According to investigators, the entries suggest a deep emotional distress stemming from a one-sided relationship. The deceased had reportedly been pursuing a female software engineer, but the affection was not returned.
“Told Her Not to Harass Him”
A significant portion of the investigation is focusing on the victim’s final writings. Sources indicate that the diary contained pleas for the woman to “stop harassing” or “troubling” him, though the context of these claims remains under scrutiny. It appears the victim felt overwhelmed by the emotional complexity of their interactions in the weeks leading up to his death.
Key Details from the Case:
Victim’s Background: A former YouTuber known for digital storytelling and social media content.
The Catalyst: Entries in a personal diary pointing toward a failed romantic pursuit of a “techie” (software professional).
Legal Action: Police have registered a case under Section 174 of the CrPC (suspicious death) and are currently examining call records and digital messages.
