A 16-year-old girl shot herself at her residence in Tulsi Marg in Bani Park area on Saturday morning. The girl, a Class XI student of Step by Step school, used the licenced gun of her father, a retired colonel, to commit suicide.

The deceased, Arti Singh, left a suicide note which stated she alone was responsible for the incident. She also said that she loved her family very much.

“Her father Vijay Singh Shekhawat and grandfather Chandra Singh Shekhawat are retired colonels. The girl had got admission to Step by Step School only recently. Vijay Singh is working with a private firm,” said CO Sadar, Bajrang Singh.

He said that the incident took place at around 9.30 am on Saturday. “Vijay Singh had gone for work and the girl’s mother was also not home. Chandra Singh was in another room when he heard a gunshot from the girl’s bedroom,” said the officer.

“She got the gun from the almirah where it was kept. The gun was a 0.32 bore revolver,” said the officer.
When Chandra Singh found her lying in a pool of blood on the floor of the bedroom, he immediately called medical help and informed the police.

“She was rushed to SMS Hospital where doctors declared her brought dead,” the officer said.

In the suicide note which was found in the bedroom, Arti stated that her suicide was nobody’s fault and it was a matter between her and the god.
