Dubai, Oct 23 (UNI) Yet another Indian labourer committed suicide in Sharjah by hanging himself from a cealing fan in his room.

The body of a 35-year-old Indian labourer, Saju, was found in his labour accommodation in Al Saja area early yesterday.

He was working with a contracting company. According to police, Saju did not show up for work last morning.

When his colleagues went up to his room to enquire why he had not joined them, they were shocked to see him hanging from the fan.

Dozens of labourers are driven to suicide in the Gulf countries due to financial and emotional problems.
