Nagpur:
A 17 -year -old girl in the city of Nagpur de Maharashtra supposedly committed suicide after searching online about “what happens after death,” police said Tuesday.
The victim, class 12 of a private school and the only son of a regional director at the RBI in Nagpur, frequently sought information about death and foreign cultures, they said. Supposedly, first the wrist was cut, making cross -marks with a ‘stone blade’ that he had apparently ordered online, and then cut off his throat to finish his life, police said.
Her mother, a housewife, found her lying on a pool of blood in her room at her home in the Chhatrapati Nagar area around 5.45 am on Monday and gave an alarm, the police said.
After being alert, the police arrived at the scene.
They seized their mobile phone and while they reviewed it, they came to know that he had been looking for Google information about “what happens after death,” said a Dhantoli police station official.
She had written extensively about foreign cultures in her newspapers, she said.
Police learned that the girl was particularly interested in European culture and had been investigating death for some time. This suggests that I was planning suicide for several weeks, said the official. During the body inspection, the police noticed that the girl had made five cuts in her wrist, including two transverse brands, and also cut off her throat, she said.
The investigations suggested that the girl was addicted to online games and frequently sought information about foreign death and cultures, said the official.
The knife with a stone blade and a wooden handle, which supposedly used to finish with its life is not available in the local market, he said. Police suspect that the girl could have ordered the knife online and the authorities were reviewing her social media account, said the official.
The girl lived with her parents on the ground floor of her house, while the first floor was occupied by her uncle’s family and grandmother.
The Dhantoli police have registered an accidental death case and is carrying out more investigations.
