Mumbai: A 20-year-old woman from Chembur tried to commit suicide by jumping off a moving Mumbai local train into Vashi Creek on the Harbour Line because she was upset after her boyfriend blocked her on her phone and on social media. The incident occurred around 8:30 am as the train was crossing the Vashi Creek bridge. The woman survived the suicide attempt as fishermen, who were present in the creek at the time, noticed her fall and immediately steered their boat towards her.
According to preliminary information, the woman suddenly leapt into the water through the open door of the coach.
In a remarkable stroke of luck, the woman was carrying a backpack when she jumped. Air trapped inside the bag reportedly helped her stay afloat, preventing her from sinking immediately. This provided valuable time to the fishermen to rescue her.
The woman is said to be in a stable condition.
