May be Corchorus olitorius, but corchorus fruits striations and tip need to be check, before any conclusion.

It should be a Corchorus species. But without seeing fruit it is difficult to confirm Corchorus olitorius L. or Corchorus aestuans.

I think it is more close to Corchorus aestuans L. than C. olitorius
