Teased by classmates, Class 11 boy ends life

The deceased was identified as G Bharat (16), a resident of Humanthaputheri and student of a private school. He had the habit of bedwetting, the police said.

Bharat, who reportedly slept in the exam hall on Friday, urinated there. Seeing this, the students from his class teased him the entire day, the police added. Later, he went home and told his parents about the incident. His father Gajendran consoled Bharat and then went to a funeral with his wife on that night, leaving Bharat alone in the house.

When Bharat’s parents returned home on at around 7 am the next day, they found their son hanging from the ceiling. The Chengalpattu Town police registered a case and are investigating.
