A 22-year-old girl committed suicide in the posh Safdarjung Enclave area of south Delhi on Sunday night.

The police said Aparna was depressed as she was not getting a job after completing a course from an airhostess training institute in Delhi.

Aparna's body was found hanging from the ceiling fan in her rented flat.

"Her brother was calling her since yesterday but her cell phone was switched off. He got suspicious and decided to meet her. When he visited her accommodation at D Block in the area, he found the main door of the flat locked from inside. He knocked several times but no one answered. He then informed the cops who broke open the door to found Aparna hanging," said the officer.

Aparna was taken to a nearby government hospital where doctors declared her brought dead. No suicide note has been recovered from the crime scene. "We have taken the statement of her brother and some neighbours. So far, it seems to be a case of suicide. We are told that she committed suicide when she failed to get a job as an airhostess," the officer added.

A senior police officer said the deceased was a native of Satna in Madhya Pradesh and had been living in the area for the past one year.
