Bhopal:17-year-old Daughter of IPS Officer Dies By Suicide

The girl, a Class 12 student who had recently celebrated her 17th birthday, was alone at home as her father -- posted at the state police headquarters -- was at his office and her mother, who works with the state judicial services, was on duty at the Bhopal Gas Relief Department. The girl's elder brother was also away, said Habibganj police station in-charge Sandeep Chouksey.

The housekeeper found the girl hanging by a dupatta in a room on the second floor of the house at around 2 pm, the official said. No suicide note was found in the room. Further probe was on, Chouksey said.
