Troubled love lives seem to be the reason behind the two teenaged girls' suicides in Aarey on Tuesday. The residents of Aarey colony said the two girls were friends, with the 17-year-old studying at a Malad college in Std XII, and the 16-year-old a Std X pass.

During the investigation, when the girls' classmates and friends were questioned, it was revealed that the partners of both teenagers were apparently unhappy with the girls allegedly cheating on them. On the day of the incident, the two met their respective boyfriends who refused to pursue the relationships further. This seemed to have upset the girls who then ended their lives.
