JAIPUR: Upset over repeated eve-teasing by four youths, a 21-year-old girl committed suicide by hanging from the ceiling fan at her residence in Mahaua area in Dausa district. The police have arrested all the accused.
The girl, Deeksha Sharma, who was pursuing BA first year at Mahatma Gandhi College in Dausa, locked herself in the room of her house on Thursday morning. When she did not respond to repeated calls from her parents, they unlocked the room only to find her hanging from the fan, police said.
The police have also found a suicide note on the spot. They have arrested four youths since the girl had accused them of eve-teasing her in the past couple of years.
"She had said in the suicide note that these youths were showing indecent signs whenever she used to visit the college," said a police officer.
"We have arrested all the four accused. We are investigating their role to find if they could also be implicated for outraging the modesty of the girl," said Satyaveer Singh, superintendent of police.
The accused were identified as Sonu, Devendra, Sunil and Sandeep, he added.
