One more inmate attempts suicide at Kozhikode mental health centre

One more woman has attempted suicide at the Government Mental Health Centre, Kozhikode, even as the Director of Health Services is expected to visit the facility in the wake of repeated instances of security lapses being reported from there.

According to sources, the inmate of the fifth ward was found injured around 2 p.m. on Monday. She was soon taken to the Government Medical College Hospital. Her condition is reported to be stable. The incident happened soon after a team of police officials completed their inspection there ahead of submitting a report to the Kerala High Court. The court had sought a report after the district judge apprised it about the situation at the centre.
