SINGAPORE: In an ongoing coroner's inquiry into the death of Indonesian student David Hartanto Widjaja on Friday, the court heard how a text document entitled "Last Words" was found in the undergraduate's laptop.
Taking the stand was Senior Staff Sergeant Joe Ng Suan Teck from the Criminal Investigation Department's Technology Crime Forensic branch.
He had checked Widjaja's laptop, mobile phone and thumb-drive shortly after his death in March this year.
The text document in the laptop detailed family and personal problems. The writer also spoke of losing his or her will to live.
Even though the document was found on Widjaja's laptop, Senior Staff Sergeant Ng was unable to confirm the writer's identity. That is because anyone who had access to the computer could have created it.
Also in the laptop were text fragments from Internet searches on murder and suicide, raising the possibility that the user could have visited websites on such subjects.
The court heard that Senior Staff Sergeant Ng examined the thumb-drive and uncovered only deleted video files which were clips from popular US TV series, "Prison Break".
He added that Widjaja's mobile phone contained more than 300 text messages, but the CID officer did not reveal the content in the courtroom.
21-year-old Widjaja was an electrical and electronic engineering student at Nanyang Technological University. He allegedly stabbed his professor on campus before falling to his death on March 2.
The hearing continues on Wednesday.
