A young Chinese woman has appeared to document on Instagram the final moments before she committed suicide by jumping out of her high-rise apartment window.
‘I will haunt you day and night after I’m dead,’ jojostai1012, from Shanghai, told her ex-boyfriend on the photo-sharing app before uploading a shot of a pile of her belongings burning and another of her legs dangling perilously out a window with a carpark many stories below.
It’s not completely clear what happened next, but Chinese forum Mop shared a photo of what appears to be a woman’s body lying in a pool of water in a carpark with police investigating the scene.
The shape of the carpark resembles the one seen beneath her feet in the picture she uploaded and, according to the DailyDot, a person claiming to be her neighbor confirmed the suicide in a comment.
‘This is real, we live in the same building, she died Saturday morning,’ the person wrote. ‘No matter what, how much courage must it have taken for a little girl to kill herself? Hope she will find peace in the afterlife.’
Another man, claiming to be her friend, mourned her loss online, and posted a screen shot of a text message conversation he appeared to have had with the girl earlier, where she told him she was ‘going to leave.’
