A tragic incident occurred yesterday in Pa Khlok, Phuket, when a nine-year-old girl reportedly committed suicide by hanging after being denied permission to join her sister on a trip to a local waterfall. The child’s body was discovered at her family home by her grandfather.

 

Upon finding the girl’s body hanging from a clothesline tied between a coconut tree and a house pillar, her grandfather immediately sought to cut the nylon rope with scissors. However, by the time he managed to do so, the girl was already motionless. Unable to help the girl by himself due to his disability, the grandfather called for assistance from neighbours, who moved the girl’s body inside the house and contacted emergency services and the girl’s parents, reported Phuket News.

 

The girl’s grandfather informed the police that she had been extremely upset about not being allowed to accompany her older sister to the waterfall, which is believed to have led to her tragic decision.

 

Thalang Police Chief Col. Pisit Chuenphet and his fellow officers, along with a forensic doctor from Vachira Phuket Hospital, officers from the Pa Klok Municipal Rescue Unit, an EMS unit from Thalang Hospital, and rescue workers from the Kusoldharm Foundation, all arrived at the scene to investigate the incident.
