KOZHIKODE: An LP school teacher was found hanging at her residence in Kozhikode on Wednesday. Alina Benny (29), a teacher of St. Joseph's LP School, Kodenchery, Thamarassery, was found dead in her house in Kattippara. Alina worked at a school in Kattippara for five years before joining a school in Kodenchery where she was working for the last year.

Alina did not attend school on Wednesday and her phone was switched off. Minding her absence, the school authorities contacted her father Benny and enquired about the matter. When Benny came home around 3 pm on Wednesday, Alina was found hanging in her room.

Alina had neither a stable job nor a proper salary. Her father, Benny, said that Alina took her own life due to depression. Alina worked at a corporate management school where her salary often got stalled. Alina was mentally exhausted after she did not get the salary dues.

Thamarassery Police SHO Sayuj Kumar A informed that a case of natural death has been registered in the incident. The inquest proceedings were completed and the body was shifted to Kozhikode Medical College Mortuary.
