Teenage girl driven to suicide by two youth

Eve teasing over time has reduced considerably in the city. This is due to strict laws and regular patrolling in the city. But when this teasing happens in the premises of someone's home, the first thing to do is to notify the police.

A 17 year-old Intermediate student committed suicide in Shamirpet, Hyderabad on Tuesday, when two neighbors continuously pestered her to accept a proposal. The girl, Saranya, committed suicide by hanging herself from the ceiling of her home. The two accused, a juvenile, 17-year old degree first year student and a 20 year-old auto driver, Narsinga Rao were arrested in this regard. Saranya's father, Mallesh who is a farmer lodged a complaint at Shamirpet Police Station alleging that his daughter committed suicide because of the harassment of these two youngsters.
