Ludhiana: A 17-year-old girl, Neha, committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling fan at her residence in Dhola village on Wednesday. The girl has left behind a suicide note in which she held her uncle (father’s brother) responsible for her death.
Considering the suicide note, the Meharban police station registered an abetment to suicide case against the girl’ uncle Dev, also resident of Dholla village.
Baldev Raj, kin of the deceased girl, told the police that Neha was found dead on Wednesday morning in her room. The police was informed and body was taken to Civil Hospital for post-mortem examination. “Initially we were not aware of the cause of the suicide but later when we searched the room of the girl, a suicide note was found in which the deceased clearly held her uncle Dev responsible for her death,” said Neha’s kin.
Police sources said though a case of abetment to suicide was registered against the uncle of the deceased girl but the police would send the suicide note for forensic examination to match the writing of the deceased. Investigation officer ASI Surinder Pal said raids are being conducted to nab the accused. TNS
