Hyderabad: A girl student of Class VIII, identified as K. Baby, committed suicide by hanging herself in her house at Banjara Colony, Hayatnagar.
Some locals suspected that the teenaged girl took the extreme step as she was being harassed by a local boy for the last few months.
However, the police said that the victim’s parents have given a statement in writing that the girl was suffering from stomach ache, and she had been complaining about it for the last two days.
“We have got a complaint from the parents that Baby ended her life due to her stomach ache. But, as it is very unusual for a teenager to commit suicide because of stomach ache, we are also exploring other angles,” said R. Srinivas Reddy, Hayatnagar sub-inspector.
“She had hanged herself when her parents had gone out for work,” the SI said. The incident came to light on Tuesday morning when the victim’s relative came to her house and saw her hanging. Cops have booked a case of suspicious death under CrPc Section 174, and launched an investigation.
