Asha, the victim was found hanging from the ceiling fan in her room. They found her with a dupatta tied around her neck hanging from the ceiling fan. When taken to the hospital, she was declared dead.
Reportedly failing in the result after collecting her results from the school, the girl didn’t eat anything after coming from school and didn’t talk to anyone about the result. A family member further added, she was under severe depression and went early to her room.
- The second case involved another Class IX girl who hanged herself to death at her house in Outer Delhi’s Aman Vihar. As no suicide note was found, the police found out that she had failed for the second time in her Class IX examination.
The girl studied at a school near her residence. The mother of the victim told that her daughter was a little upset for having failed again but she showed no signs of depression. FIR has been registered and investigation is on for both the cases.
