BUTTERWORTH: The 14-year-old schoolgirl, who tried to hang herself after being accused of stealing a teacher’s handphone, has died.
Malaysian Tamilar Kural president David Marshel, who has been following the case since it happened, confirmed that the girl died in Seberang Jaya Hospital at about 3.30am on Thursday (Feb 1).
“A post-mortem will be carried out this morning before the family members are allowed to claim her body,” he said when contacted.
Marshel added that he is at the hospital to help the family with the procedures.
The girl tried to hang herself with a shawl at her house a few hours after being accused of stealing her teacher’s handphone last Wednesday (Jan 24).
She left a note to her parents saying that she did not steal the phone.
The teenage girl, who is the youngest of four siblings, also said she did not want to cause her family any more trouble.
She had been clinging on to life at the Seberang Jaya Hospital’s intensive care unit comatose with brain damage.
Her father, who is in his 50s, said his daughter was brought home by the class teacher and her husband at about 6.15pm.
“They said that the theft was captured on CCTV but they could not confirm whether the girl in the footage was my daughter.
“And my daughter denied that she stole the phone when I asked her,” said the former cook during an interview last week.
He said his daughter later locked herself in the room and when he opened the door, he found her unconscious with a shawl around her neck tied to some piping.

TEACHER & HUSBAND CONFRONTED GIRL’S PARENTS – HOW COULD THEY PUT HER TO SO MUCH SHAME
A 13-YEAR-OLD girl who attempted suicide after being accused of stealing a teacher’s handphone has died.
M. Vasanthapiriya died about 3.30am today after lying in coma at the Seberang Jaya Hospital’s intensive care unit for two weeks.
Malaysian Tamilar Kural president David Marshel said the girl’s family were currently claiming the body at the hospital.
The Nibong Tebal SMK Methodist pupil was accused of stealing a teacher’s iPhone 6 at school on January 24. She was reportedly questioned by three teachers, including the one who said her smartphone was stolen.
After being taken home by the teacher concerned and her husband, where they confronted her parents, Vasanthapiriya locked herself in her room.
When the parents returned later at night, Vasanthapiriya did not answer after they called her repeatedly. The father broke into the room and found the teen hanged to a pipe.
She was still alive when they found her. She reportedly left a suicide note, saying she did not steal her teacher’s phone. She also said goodbye to her parents and grandmother.
The Penang education department launched an investigation into the case.
