Beed: A 15-year-old boy allegedly died by suicide after his mother refused to let him go out to play with his friend in Maharashtra's Beed district, police said.
About The Incident
The incident occurred in the Kaij area on Sunday.
A friend of the boy, who was a Class 9 student, visited his home at around 10 am on Sunday, urging him to come out and play.
However, the teenager's mother advised him to stay indoors due to the rising temperature and suggested he go out after 4 pm, a police official said.
Apparently distressed after being denied permission in front of his friend to play outside, the boy went into his parents' bedroom, locked the door from inside, and allegedly hanged himself from the ceiling fan, he said.
His mother, who was occupied with household chores in the kitchen, did not notice anything unusual at first. Around 1:30 pm, upon finding the bedroom door locked, she raised an alarm.
Neighbours rushed to the scene, broke open the door, and found the boy lying unresponsive on the floor with a broken rope nearby.
He was immediately rushed to the sub-district hospital in Kaij. Due to his critical condition, medical officers referred him to a government hospital in Ambajogai, located 40 km away, but he passed away en route, the official said.
The body was handed over to the family after the postmortem.
The Kaij police have registered a case in connection with the incident.
