Death of Jacintha Saldanha
Jacintha Saldanha (1966–7 December 2012) was an Indian nurse who worked at King Edward VII's Hospital Sister Agnes in London, England. On 7 December 2012, she was found dead by apparent suicide, three days after receiving and falling for a prank phone call as part of a radio stunt. In the prank call, the hosts of the Australian radio programme ''Hot30 Countdown'', broadcast on the Southern Cross Austereo-owned station 2Day FM in Sydney, called Saldanha's hospital and impersonated the Queen and the Prince of Wales enquiring about the health of the Duchess of Cambridge, who was a patient there at the time. Saldanha fell for the hoax and transferred the call to the nurse looking after the Duchess.
Saldanha's suicide led to public outrage, including in Saldanha's home country of India, against those responsible for perpetrating and broadcasting the prank. Despite numerous calls for legal action, no charges were ever laid as a result of the incident.
==Background of Saldanha==
Saldanha was 46 years old at the time of her death.〔 She was born in India and had lived in Oman for several years before moving to England in approximately 2002.〔 In December 2012, she was staying in nurse's quarters at her London workplace for the sake of convenience, while her husband, their 16-year-old son, and their 14-year-old daughter resided in Bristol.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jacintha Attempted Suicide More than Once, Blamed RJs for her Death: Reports )〕
Saldanha had reportedly attempted suicide on two previous occasions. On 30 December 2011, during a family trip to India, she had taken an overdose of pills and was treated for "self harm" at a private hospital in Mangalore. On 8 January 2012, she is believed to have attempted suicide again and was treated at a different Mangalore hospital for head injuries, after which she was treated for depression and was prescribed a nine-month course of antidepressants.
