A schoolgirl has reportedly committed suicide by hanging herself from a ceiling fan at Chandraghona in Kaptai upazila of Rangamati on Sunday night, UNB reports.
The deceased was identified as Jannatul Ferdous Sathi, 15, daughter of auto-rickshaw driver Md Faruk and class X student of KPM High School.
Md Nasir Uddin, officer-in-charge of Kaptai Police Station, said Sathi demanded Tk 100 from her mother to buy a gift to give her friend on the occasion of her birthday.
