Prank-call nurse 'had previous suicide attempts'

(TELEGRAPH) — The nurse who was found hanged after the Duchess of Cambridge radio DJ prank had made two previous suicide attempts, it has been claimed.

Jacintha Saldanha, 46, was treated in intensive care at a hospital in Mangalore, India, in January, after reportedly falling from a building.

It came just nine days after she attempted to commit suicide with an overdose of pills during a family visit to India, according to reports.
