On Monday afternoon, after attending his classes at around 1pm, Mohammed was playing games on the mobile phone and his younger brothers was asking for the phone as his online class was about to start. When Mohammed did not give the phone, his younger brother complained to their mother, who scolded Mohammed and snatched the phone from him. Enraged over it, Mohammed went to his bedroom on the third floor of the house.
As Mohammed didn't come down for lunch, his mother went upstairs to call him, but found the door locked from inside. She immediately informed his father Imran Khan, who broke open the door and found Mohammed hanging.
"He was rushed to Rajawadi Hospital where he was declared dead on arrival by doctors at 2.24 pm," said Kishor Gayke, senior inspector of Shivaji Nagar police station. "We have recorded statement of his parents and have received primary post mortem report which has ruled out any foul play," he added.
The police have registered Accidental Death Report (ADR) in connection with the incident.
