After having dinner on Tuesday night, she went to her room to sleep. When her parents woke up on Wednesday, they found her body in the house. Police say it appears that the girl first tied her legs, then wrapped her face with a polythene bag.
She inserted the pipe from the cylinder in their home into her mouth, wrapped another polythene around her face, tied it tightly, pressed a pillow on her face. She then opened the cylinder and could have died by inhaling the gas.
