According to reports, the business studies undergraduate suffered from epilepsy and collapsed in the shower at his student accommodation in east London,
before being pronounced dead at the scene. One anonymous poster on website the wallstreetoasis.com site said: "He was found dead in the shower by his flatmate. Intern at BAML [Banking of America and Merill Lynch] who went home at 6am three days in a row." Many of the comments threads focused on how hard interns were forced to work in banking internships, with many saying students felt they had to stay all night to be offered a job.
