CAIRO: An Egyptian man has committed suicide because he couldn’t stand his family’s repeated attempts to get him married.

Local Egyptian media reported that the 22-year-old man, who held a bachelor’s degree in engineering, and lived in 10th of Ramadan City, killed himself because his family always pushed him to get married as he was their only son.
