City Party King's Job-Loss Leap Of Death



A young City star - 'living the dream' - leapt to his death from a landmark rooftop restaurant, dressed in his best suit and clutching a flute of champagne, two days after his suspension from a leading bank.

Anjool Malde,24, feared the axe from Deutsche Bank and fell to his death on on July 5 from the eighth-floor terrace of Coq d'Argent at No. 1 Poultry - near the Bank of England.

The Oxford-graduate was co-founder of AlphaParties - which specialised in organizing bashes for young professionals in Mayfair and Kensington - and had advertised his own upcoming 25th birthday at an exclusive Soho club.

Party-loving Malde (pictured with ex-Spice Girl Geri Halliwell at the Oxford Union) was suspended by bosses at 3pm on Friday July 3 following "an inquiry into an IT matter" and told not to return until called in.

Known as 'Jools' to pals Malde held more than twenty positions of responsibility in various societies, was a serial online entrepreneur, a teenage BBC arts and music reviewer, worked in editorial with Oxford's two newspapers and presented the news on student radio.
