Mohali, March 19
A 16-year-old girl, a student of Class XI, allegedly committed suicide by hanging at her rented accommodation in Nayagaon here on Monday.
The deceased, a native of Leh-Ladakh, was studying at New Public School in Chandigarh.
The investigating officer said a suicide note was recovered from the spot in which the victim stated that she was taking the extreme step as she was not happy with her life.
A police official said her uncle, an Army man, posted in Chandigarh, had been informed about the incident. “The girl’s neighbours and kin claim that she was of reserved nature. Her exams had finished last week,” said the police official. The police have initiated inquest proceedings under Section 174 of the CrPC. —TNS
