His mother approached the Dindoshi police station in the evening after finding the suicide note. According to police, the mother told them that her son was playing a game on the mobile phone and she didn’t allow him more time on the screen.
“After taking the phone away from her son, the mother went outside. The minor boy then left the house after writing the suicide note. When she returned home, she found the note and immediately rushed to the police station,” an officer said.
As the police launched a search, they learnt about a body being found between Kandivli and Malad. After verification, they established that the body was that of the 14-year-old boy.
The railways police have registered an accidental death report, while the Dindoshi police are probing the matter further. In the note, the boy said he had attempted suicide twice in the past; once when he was in Std III and again in Std V.
