The deceased, Tannu, was a student of Class IX. Her family suspects ‘black magic’ behind the suicide.

Jagbir, father of the deceased, claimed that it was the third incident of suicide in the family, as his 17-year-old daughter and 20-year-old nephew had died in a similar manner within a year. “I went for labour work and my wife had gone to the field. When I came back, I found my daughter hanging from the ceiling fan,” the father added.
