Hours before beginning a new life through wedlock, a 24-year-old man allegedly committed suicide at Kompally in Medchal district in Hyderabad in the wee hours of Sunday, police said.

The reason for the extreme step is not known, they said.

N. Sai Sandeep, a private company employee, hanged himself from a ceiling fan with a towel in a room at the marriage hall, a police inspector said.

Some relatives called Sandeep over his phone but there was no response, so they broke into the room and found him hanging, the police said.

His marriage was scheduled at around 11.30am and guests, who reached the venue, were shocked to hear the news of the death, they said.

Investigations were on to find out the reason behind the extreme step. A case has been registered.
