Man found dead in NTU campus apartment
-
A man from the Nanyang Technological University has been found dead in his apartment unit on the campus.
24-year-old Zhou Zheng, a Chinese national, was an Infocomm Project Officer at the university's School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering.
He was found hanging in the balcony in his apartment at Block 101C Nanyang Heights where staff and graduate students reside.
Police say they received a call at around 10.30 last night and when they arrived, the body had been brought down to the floor.
The man was pronounced dead at 10.55 pm.
In a statement, NTU says professional counsellors and senior university officers were activated on site to offer support.
The man's parents have since been notified.
As for his flatmates, NTU has found temporary accommodation for them.
When 938LIVE visited the area shortly after midnight, there were hardly any signs of disturbance.
Those that 938LIVE spoke to say the residents there kept mostly to themselves, and hardly interacted with one another.
And some didn't even know who their neighbours were.
PhD student Narendar is one of the residents there.
"I know the students around here, but i don't know the professors, they stick to themselves."
NTU's president Su Guaning says they are deeply saddened by the loss.
This is the university's second alleged suicide case in less than a week.
Both men were from the university's School of Electronic and Electrical Engineering.
On Monday, a 21-year-old Indonesian undergraduate is believed to have slit his wrists and fell to his death after allegedly stabbing his professor on campus.

The 25 year old, who’s not a Singaporean, is believed to have committed suicide.
His body was discovered at around 10.30 last night.
An NTU spokesperson said the university’s support systems have swung into action to ensure that those who found the body are not traumatised.
As for his flatmates, NTU has found temporary accommodation for them.
The man worked as a Infocomm Project Officer in the university
His apartment unit is located at Nanyang Heights, where staff and graduate students reside.
When 938LIVE visited the area shortly after midnight, there were hardly any signs of disturbance.
Investigations are underway.
If confirmed, this would make it NTU’s second alleged suicide case in less than a week.
