"We do not know what was going on in his mind... It was very unexpected. He had not left behind any note and we have not come across anything later. We are trying our best to figure out what was going on in his mind and what was troubling him," he said. A friend said: "We checked with the college. They said he was doing wonderful in his studies and everything was going fine. He was a favourite among the faculty and they said he was good in his studies." A friend from school said, "I do not know much about the incident. He was my close friend from school in Sharjah. I am really disturbed."
