Vasai-Virar: A wave of shock and concern has gripped the Vasai-Virar Police Commissionerate after six individuals reportedly died by suicide on Friday. The victims, who all ended their lives by hanging, include two minors aged 10 and 15, alongside several adults.

Of the six incidents, five occurred within the Vasai-Virar city limits, while one was reported in Bhayandar.

The community is particularly shaken by the death of 10-year-old Zoya Khan, a resident of the Wakanpada area in Nalasopara. Zoya was found hanging by a scarf (dupatta) in her home. While her father has filed a formal report with the police, the motive behind such an extreme step by a child remains a mystery, leaving both the family and the neighborhood in a state of profound grief and confusion.
