23 years Nigerian student Lara Nosiru leaped to her death after she discussed committing suicide with her friend Ms. Kasumi Kishi back in January.
According to investigations, Ms. Kishi told a group of friends that if someone wanted to die it was cruel to make them stay alive, as flatmate Solene Rebibo said at the meal Ms. Kishi “seemed comfortable” talking about suicide to Ms. Nosiru’s friends.
Ms. Nosiru who took an overdose of LSD before her death, reportedly suffered from depression for four years as Psychotherapist Dr. Niklas Serning said he had seen Ms Nosiru, every week for a year and she was “extremely bright” and would discuss the meaning of life at their hourly sessions.
Ms Kishi told cops she had hoped to convince Lara not to kill herself. CCTV showed she twice pulled her from the edge before walking away. Police looked at charges including assisting suicide but ruled no offence was committed.
But Lara’s mum Olu, 50, blasted Ms Kishi, saying: “She could have saved her.” The Avon and Somerset coroner ruled Lara took her own life while under the influence of drugs.
