GIRL WHO DIED BY SUICIDE WAS PREPARING FOR JOB INTERVIEW

KALYAN: The 17-year-old girl, who died by suicide following the alleged sexual assault by her peers, was preparing for a job interview hours before the incident, her father said. He remembered her as a dreamer and said she wanted to start her own business.

Meanwhile, police have seized the mobile phones of the accused and sent them to the forensic laboratory at Kalina.

Eight students were arrested by the Kolsewadi police in Kalyan after the minor, who passed out of Class 12, died by suicide, blaming them for sexual harassment.

The girl’s father said, “On the day she got the results, she was telling us about her future business plan and to support her two brothers too. On Sunday afternoon, she told my wife to prepare breakfast on Monday morning as she was going for an interview. On the way to her uncle’s house, she got a phone call from one of the accused and started crying. In the note which the police found, she had written about her spine-chilling ordeal. In the eyes of the law, it must be a suicide but for me it is a murder.”

In the suicide note, the girl wrote that she had been facing sexual harassment since Class 8. She wrote, “I had met a boy on whom I had a crush but I was new to the feeling and my friends told me I should let the boy know. He used to help me and was a nice person. I told him on Instagram and he asked me to meet on the terrace. He kissed me when someone shot the video and since then I have been blackmailed.”

In the first two-three lines, she said “Mere ek galti ka pachtava me 100 bar bhi Janam lu to bhi rahega. Sirf ek Galti ke Vajese meri puri life kharab ho gayi he. Muze Ghin aane lagi he.” (I will regret my one mistake for eternity. Just because of my one mistake my whole life is ruined. I loathe myself)

DCP Sachin Gunjal said, “We were supposed to get the postmortem report today [Thursday] but it got delayed.”
