CHANDIGARH: Fed up of being allegedly stalked by two brothers, a Dalit girl killed herself by consuming poison at a village in Bhiwani district late Friday. Based on her brother’s complaint, police booked the accused duo for abetting the suicide and violating the SC/ST Act.
Police were conducting raids to arrest the accused. The teen’s body was handed over to her kin after autopsy. Last month, her family filed a police complaint but the brothers allegedly threatened them of dire consequences besides hurling casteist abuses. “We are verifying the facts and looking for the accused,” said a cop.
