Friend tries to stop her, but in vain...
According to information, the girl studies in class 9 of a government school in Semariya tehsil of Sidhi district. She attended some classes and bunked the school post-lunch. The CCTV cameras installed at the roadside show her picking a shoemaker's needle from the cobbler's mat and stabbing herself mercilessly, even as her friend tries to stop her. The girl pierced the sharp, thick needle inside her throat and continued to stab herself multiple times until she fell unconscious on the ground.
Stunned at the scene, the locals rushed the bleeding girl to the nearby hospital, and her parents were informed. The doctors gave her first aid and referred her to Sanjay Gandhi Super Speciality Hospital.
Police have started an investigation, raising questions about the negligent school management for letting students flee before the time.
