    Palestinian protesters stand atop a section of Israel's controversial barrier that separates the West Bank town of Abu Dis from Jerusalem November 17, 2014. A Palestinian bus driver was found hanged inside his vehicle on Monday, an incident Israeli police described as a suicide but which the driver's family said they believed was an attack. Israeli police said the evidence suggested al-Ramouni had committed suicide, but rumors quickly spread in the Palestinian media that he had been killed by Jewish assailants, fuelling tension and violence in the divided city.

    The Scene at the Top of Beachy Head

    GRIEVING PARENTS LEAP TO DEATH WITH BODY OF SON

    A grieving couple have committed suicide following the death their son.

    Neil Puttick, 34, and his wife Kazumi, 44, leapt to their deaths at Beachy Head in Eastbourne, while carrying the body of their five-year-old son Sam.

    The desperate act came just hours after the youngster, who had been paralysed from the neck down in a car crash as a baby, died from meningitis.

    The three bodies were found by coastguards around 400ft down the cliffside.

    Sam's body was found in a rucksack near to his parents. A second rucksack was found to contain children's toys.

    Chief Inspector Dick Coats of Sussex Police said officers were not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

    Sam was left paralysed when he was 16 months old after his baby chair was thrown out of a car during a crash.

    Charity worker Neil and translator Kazumi - originally from Japan - gave up their jobs in order to care for their son.

    They went on to raise around GBP 30,000 in order to adapt their home - a cottage in Brokerswood, Wiltshire.

    However, tragedy struck when Sam contracted viral meningitis. After being told by doctors that there was no way to save him the Puttick's took him home to die, which he did on Friday (29 May).

    Less than 48 hours later, on Sunday (31 May), Neil and Kazumi drove to Beachy Head with the body of their son as part of a suicide pact.

    The cliffs at Beachy Head reach up to about 600ft (180m) high and are a suicide black spot.

    According to Coastguard Stuart McNab, who recovered the three bodies, an average of 20 people jump from the cliffs every year.

    The Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team was set up in 2004 to patrol the area in an attempt to prevent suicides.

    GRIEVING PARENTS LEAP TO DEATH WITH BODY OF SON

    A grieving couple have committed suicide following the death their son.

    Neil Puttick, 34, and his wife Kazumi, 44, leapt to their deaths at Beachy Head in Eastbourne, while carrying the body of their five-year-old son Sam.

    The desperate act came just hours after the youngster, who had been paralysed from the neck down in a car crash as a baby, died from meningitis.

    The three bodies were found by coastguards around 400ft down the cliffside.

    Sam's body was found in a rucksack near to his parents. A second rucksack was found to contain children's toys.

    Chief Inspector Dick Coats of Sussex Police said officers were not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

    Sam was left paralysed when he was 16 months old after his baby chair was thrown out of a car during a crash.

    Charity worker Neil and translator Kazumi - originally from Japan - gave up their jobs in order to care for their son.

    They went on to raise around GBP 30,000 in order to adapt their home - a cottage in Brokerswood, Wiltshire.

    However, tragedy struck when Sam contracted viral meningitis. After being told by doctors that there was no way to save him the Puttick's took him home to die, which he did on Friday (29 May).

    Less than 48 hours later, on Sunday (31 May), Neil and Kazumi drove to Beachy Head with the body of their son as part of a suicide pact.

    The cliffs at Beachy Head reach up to about 600ft (180m) high and are a suicide black spot.

    According to Coastguard Stuart McNab, who recovered the three bodies, an average of 20 people jump from the cliffs every year.

    The Beachy Head Chaplaincy Team was set up in 2004 to patrol the area in an attempt to prevent suicides.
