when the cell is damaged , lysosomes release the enzymes (acidic) within them, which destroy the cell organelles.  Then cell dies.

Answer:

Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes for almost all types of organic materials. If their covering membrane breaks as it happens during injury to cell, the digestive enzymes will still over the cell contents and digest the same. As lysosomes are organelles which on bursting can kill cells possessing them, they are called suicide bags.
