Forced resignation leads to suicide
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The suicide of a 49 year old man has shocked his colleagues that say that two days before his death he was pressured into signing his resignation from the Praktiker supermarket chain where he had been working for the last twelve years.
According to information from his colleagues, as relayed in protothema.gr, the forced resignation he was led to by store management at the Aigaleo outlet where he is working was meant as punishment for an open carton found in his area of responsibility.
According to the same source, as soon as the open box was discovered, the security team led the 49 year old to management with the insinuation that have might have been stealing. His colleagues maintain he was pressured into signing his resignation, on 1 February, so it wouldn't be seen as a firing.
Two days later he was found hanged in his home, after neighbors alerted police as his apartment exuded an intense odor.
People who knew the man, according to the same source, spoke of an introverted, sensitive person with intensely humane feelings for animals, however no one expected his despair to be so deep, as to lead him to taking his own life.
