Sajjad reported when he went into another room, he found Shahzad hanging from a ceiling fan. He was rushed to the hospital where doctors declared him dead upon arrival.

“He [Shahzad] was in love with a girl but her father turned down his marriage proposal repeatedly after which Shahzad was really depressed and he committed suicide,” Sajjad stated in the report. Police have started an investigation into the case.

“Two years ago he was approached by a girl who claimed to be his fan. Subsequently, a friendship was developed but the girl is only 16-year-old and studying in school,” the Tiktoker’s friend said.

The friend, Amir also said that Shahzad had proposed to the girl but the proposal was immediately turned down due to the young age of the girl. “The girl told him that they will not be talking or meeting again on which Shahzad ate 50 sleeping pills in order to end his life but he was rushed to the hospital and saved,” he said, adding that after the tragic incident, his relationship with the girl was re-established for some time.

The girl’s family reportedly also objected that Shahzad spends all his time on TikTok upon which he deleted his account with 0.3 million followers.

“My point is when he was meeting the girl and giving her expensive gifts the parents had no objection so he naturally developed feelings for her,” Amir said, adding that Shahzad was his partner in an online store and was making good money.
