Year 4 Nanyang Technological
University (NTU) student Gao HY, who was identified as a SM2.5 PRC
scholar on the Electrical Engineering (EEE) degree track, was found
lying in a pool of blood on the ground floor of Hall 10 (Block 51)
on Sunday.
She was discovered by friends, who
saw her bleeding profusely from the head. They called the police,
who later cordoned off the area and covered her body with a large
white sheet.
Although the case has been
classified as a possible suicide, friends and schoolmates find it
hard to believe that Gao would take her own life.
According to her friends, Gao had
been in high spirits the last they saw her on Friday. She had just
received her results and seemed happy that she would be graduating
from NTU with a 1st class honours.
They also found it hard to believe
that Gao would die from 3 storey drop. Based on the height of the
fall, her injuries were unlikely to have been fatal, if not for the
direction of Gao's fall.
Eye witnesses who saw the body
said that her head was probably the first point of impact with the
ground, which raises suspicions about whether Gao was pushed or had
jumped down.
"I saw her after I finished my
exams in BLK 49, she waved to me and looked like her usual cheerful
self. I can't believe she would commit suicide," said one of her
schoolmates.
"After we finished our exams, we
went out in a big group to have fun. HY also went with us. This
incident happened after the release of our results, and it's
strange that local news has not reported on her suicide yet. I
guess the police are still trying to figure out the reason behind
her death."
