The boy was reportedly alone in the guest room of another house next to his house. When family members went into the room, they discovered the incident and informed the police. During the investigation, police recovered a video from the teen's mobile phone.
Deceased Made Three Attempts, Shows Mobile
The video captures the entire incident. In this half-hour-long video, the teen is seen putting a noose around his neck. After two or three attempts, the noose suddenly snaps around his neck. A police officer stated that people typically express their distress before committing suicide, but the teen is not seen speaking in the video. It has also been learned that the teen was very fond of making reels and would frequently upload them to Instagram.
What Has Police Said?
District Deputy Commissioner of Police Bhishma Singh stated that the police have registered a case of suicide and have begun an investigation. The way the teen is seen making a couple of trials in the video suggests that the accident occurred while making a reel.
It has also been learned that the teen sent a SnapChat to his friend before the incident, saying, "Brother! I won't be with you all the time; sometimes you'll have to be alone." This Snapchat is being linked to this incident. It's possible that the teenager sent this message to a friend as a joke, and the accident occurred.
