Relatives urge investigation into Thrissur student's death in Scotland

Relatives of a student who died in Scotland are calling for a thorough investigation into his death. Ebel Tharayil's body was discovered on March 12 on railway tracks. He was a student at Stirling University and was known for his love of sports. The family learned about Ebel's death from the Indian Consulate in Scotland the following day. His body is currently being held in a hospital in Scotland for further examination. While initial reports from the police suggest that it may have been suicide, Ebel's family does not believe this is the case. They argue that Ebel had a bright future ahead of him and was deeply passionate about sports. He was pursuing a master's degree in Sports Management and also worked as an athletic coach. Ebel's mother, M.S. Padmini, has reached out to local officials, including Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and Union Minister of State for Petroleum Suresh Gopi. She is asking for a detailed investigation into the circumstances surrounding her son's death and for help to bring his body home.
