The Hindu father of the girls had married two sisters and all of them were living together, in contravention to the Hindu Marriage Act. Chetan Kumar, the father, is a trader by profession and did not have any children from his first wife. He then married the younger sister of his wife and went on to have three children. In the meanwhile, he also had two children with his first wife.
Ghaziabad News-What Happened?
Three minor sisters [Nishika (16), Prachi (14), and Pakhi (12)] living in Flat No. 907 in B-1 Tower of Bharat City Society committed suicide after jumping from their 9th floor home around 2:15 am.
Nishika was the daughter from Chetan’s first wife while the other two were daughters from the second wife. For the last two years, the girls were not attending school because of financial issues and poor academic performance.
Police suspect that the three girls were addicted to an online task-based game called “Korean Lover.” that they all had been obsessively playing since the COVID-19 period. Many believe that the girls were glued to Blue Whale Challenge also known simply as the Blue Whale. The 14-year-old Prachi (the middle sister) was the game’s leader.
The girls were getting impatient and furious because their parents had refused to give them mobile phones. This prompted them to commit suicide. All three had jumped off before residents and the security staff could rush to save them. All were taken to a hospital in Loni immediately but all of them were declared brought dead.
In a suicide note, they apologized to their parents and detailed their gaming activities.
