A 17-year-old girl succumbed to the injuries she sustained while hanging herself in her house at Bhoiwada. Senior Inspector Ramchandra Jadhav said she breathed her last at KEM hospital on January 13. Police said she liked to upload her videos on the app 'tiktok,' to which her parents objected.

On Friday, the girl was celebrating her father's birthday. She also posted some videos of herself with her family on the app. Police said when she was busy with the phone, her mother objected and snatched it. "Her mother told her not to spend time with her phone and instead focus on her studies. This annoyed her. After this the girl went in the washroom and tried to hang and kill herself," said Jadhav.
