Gulfnews says it was at JLT. Either way quite tragic

Re: Burj suicide
I have read the story but it doesn't quite add up.
Can an adult actually fit through the gap on the viewing platform?
One article claims she landed on the terrace of a crowded restaurant. If it was witnessed by so many people it is not odd that nothing has slipped out about it. Even if the man who was seeing has a lot of wasta.
I am not claiming it didn't happen but it's just a bit odd.

Given that the tower is filmed all day long by someone, I'm sure a quick bit of you-tube research could find something interesting, if there was anything to be found.

Re: Burj suicide
The Daily Mail detests Dubai, Qatar and everything connected therewith. How they can publish such fictional nonsense amazes me. Emaar should sue.

Re: Burj suicide
Why does the Daily Mail hate Dubai ? Is the Emirate not sufficiently pro-Zionist ?

Wow ... that is quite a distance. Can you imagine how long you'd be in the air before hitting ground?
