My research is limited to Sindh Province, Pakistan. The Pakistan Penal Code, (1860) does not recognize or defines the definition of suicide, as an offense punishable under the respective offense. The wisdom behind is that the person who commits the suicide dies, the wrongful act of person also dies with the wrong doer. The ratio is more in youngsters, so, in this alarming situation, we are losing our young talented precious lives, it is not the loss of individual but whole society including our homeland (Pakistan), for the reasons that the persons those who committed suicide could have been our today’s Businessman, Economists, Scientists, Engineers, Doctors and Experts in their respective fields, includes other professionals or common persons of the society.
