In a tragic incident in Nagpur, Maharashtra, a 17-year-old girl allegedly committed suicide after exploring online searches about death, authorities disclosed on Tuesday.

The young student, reportedly the sole child of a regional RBI director, was known for her fascination with foreign cultures, particularly European, as indicated by her diary entries, according to police.

Police suspect that her planned suicide was a result of her exhaustive research on death over several weeks, and are investigating her social media interactions and possible online purchase of the knife used in the incident.
