A case has been registered at the Kempegowda Nagar police station.
Bengaluru: A PUC student ended her life by hanging at her residence, after her mother refused to allow her to attend her friend’s birthday party. The incident took place in Kempegowda Nagar police station limits on Thursday evening.
The deceased has been identified as Arpita (18), a student of PES College in Hosakerehalli and a resident of Nanjappa Block in Kempegowda Nagar. She is only daughter of Chandrashekhar, a cab driver, and Chandrika.
Arpita wanted to attend the party on Thursday and had approached her mother, but the latter refused permission and told her to concentrate on studies, as second PU exams were fast approaching.
An angry Arpita went up to her room on the first floor and locked herself up. Hoping that she would come after some time, Chandrika did not check on her.
However when Arpita did not come out even until late evening, Chandrika went to check on her and found the door locked from inside. She did not get any response to her repeated calls either. When she looked through the window, she found Arpita hanging to the ceiling. She was rushed to a hospital, where doctors declared her brought dead, the police said. A case has been registered at the Kempegowda Nagar police station.
Decomposed body found
In another incident, a decomposed body of a 30-year-old man was found hanging to the ceiling at his residence in Ittumadu in C.K. Achikattu police station limits on Friday.
The deceased has been identified as Chetan, a native of Koratagere in Tumkur. The police suspect Chetan committed suicide three days ago as his body has started decomposing. Chetan, an employee at a private firm, had married Lavanya two years ago and was living with his parents and wife in a rented house in Ittumudu.
His wife, who is eight months pregnant, had gone to her mother’s house for delivery. It is learnt that during the incident Chetan’s parents had gone out of town to visit their relative. “There was no issue between Chetan and his wife nor with his parents. The reason for which he took the extreme step is still not known. We are investigating,” the police said.
