Prank call nurse 'in previous suicide attempt' Jacintha Saldanha, 46, was treated in intensive care at the Father Muller Medical College Hospital in Mangalore, India, on January 8, after reportedly falling from a building. The details emerged as Scotland Yard submitted a file and asked prosecutors to consider whether any potential offences were committed by two Australian DJs who called the nurse. Indian-born Mrs Saldhana then passed the call onto a colleague who described the Duchess's condition live on air. Her brother Naveen said she never talked about previous suicide attempts or discussed her life and health issues with him during her visits to Mangalore. But he added that he visited her when she was admitted to the intensive care unit of the hospital on January 8 following the fall. He told The Times of India: "Jacintha never wanted the family to know of the incident and we played a behind-the-scene role. Even this incident was not discussed at home for the knowledge of it would have hurt my ailing mother Carmine. He went on: "We told her (Carmine) that Jacintha was admitted to hospital for blood pressure problems." More than 2,000 mourners joined her family as they paid an emotional farewell to her last week at her funeral in southern India.
