A 14-year-old girl ended her life yesterday after she couldn’t bear the online bullying anymore on a social networking website. The minor took the drastic step after she was tormented and stalked by a boy, who posted offensive material on her online account.

According to the Kandivli police, the Std IX student was a resident of Iraniwadi in Kandivli (W). Police said they received a call at 6 pm and when they reached the spot they found the teenager hanging in her bedroom. The girl’s mother told the cops that her daughter was studying in her bedroom, while she was seated in the living room. At 6 pm when she called out to her, she did not get any response and then began to knock on the locked door.
