13-Year-Old Dies by Suicide in Pakshep, Mangan; Police Investigating

In Pakshep, Mangan, a 13-year-old has tragically died by suicide. Authorities have initiated an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the young life lost, although no foul play is suspected at this time.

Just one day prior, a similar tragedy unfolded in Namchi, where a 13-year-old girl was found dead at her residence. Her family discovered her lifeless upon returning home, and it is believed she had been struggling with personal issues. Police have begun their inquiry into the matter.

Both cases highlight the urgent need for increased attention to children’s emotional well-being.
