In a tragic incident in West Bengal's Alipurduar district, a young college student died by suicide after a video, filmed without her consent, of her stealing chocolate went viral locally.
The incident took place in Jaigaon where the teen apparently took a chocolate from a shopping mall without informing anyone. When she was caught, she pleaded guilty.
But according to allegations, people working in the shopping mall took photos of her. The teen pleaded with those who had filmed or photographed her not to share the picture anywhere.
The college student's family alleged she died by suicide at home on Sunday night after the picture went viral.
