The Korean head of a Chennai-based software firm has committed suicide at his residence in the city.

According to the police, Ryu Byeong Sang was found hanging from the ceiling of his house by his wife on her return from a prayer meeting. Sang was the managing director of Auto Ever Systems, which supplied software to Hyundai’s corporate office in the city and manufacturing unit in Sriperumbudur. Police are assuming that the deceased took the extreme step because of stress.

His body has been flown to Korea after a post-mortem at the Government Royapettah Hospital. X
