A lawyer in the city of Belqas, Dakahlia Governorate, in Egypt, tragically ended his life by taking poisonous pills after a ruling was issued to imprison him for two years in a case related to the dissipation of a “trust receipt.”
This happened inside the courtroom, where the lawyer was attending the ruling session. As soon as the judge announced the ruling, the lawyer pulled out a toxic substance that he had brought with him inside his bag and swallowed it, which led to him falling unconscious on the floor of the courtroom.
He was immediately transferred to the hospital, where doctors tried hard to save his life, but to no avail, as he breathed his last due to the toxins he had ingested.
Although there are no recent reports in Egypt about suicide cases, a report by the Egyptian Ministry of Health in 2022 states that the percentage of high school students who suffer from psychological problems reached 2.2%, and the percentage of high school students who contemplate suicide reached 21.7%, while suicide cases recorded during the year 2021 amounted to 2,584. .
