HYDERABAD: A 19-year-old Intermediate student, a resident of Padmarao Nagar, allegedly died by suicide at her residence on Tuesday under suspicious circumstances.

On receiving information, family members rushed to the house and shifted the girl to Gandhi Hospital, where doctors declared her brought dead.
The Chilkalaguda police have registered a case under Section 194 of the BNSS (suspicious death) and initiated an investigation.
