A student at one of Birmingham’s top schools was found hanged by his devastated dad.

Bali Dulay discovered 17-year-old Mani Singh Dulay in the garage of the family home.

He told the Mail he was tortured by the sudden loss of the “happy-go-lucky” King Edward VI Five Ways School sixth former, who seemed to have the world at his feet.

Mr Dulay said: “We are all devastated that he is gone and words cannot describe how we feel.

“Mani was a happy-go-lucky kid, very, very, intelligent and loved by his family and his friends.

“We don’t know what could have possibly caused this.

“He always seemed happy and there were no pressures at home or from school that I can think of.”

Mani – described to mourners at his funeral as a “bright, shining light in this world” – was found dead on Tuesday last week.

The teenager was due to study for a Computer Science and Maths degree at University College London.
