A 'popular and much-loved' medical student at Newcastle University tragically took his own life by falling from a city centre building, an inquest has heard.
Waleed Zahid, 23, was in his fifth year of training to become a doctor when he ended his life. An inquest into his death heard how his body was found near the 55 Degrees North building on Swan House roundabout in Newcastle city centre.
Newcastle Coroner's Court heard on Wednesday how Waleed had sustained multiple traumatic injuries after falling from the building on April 21 this year.
