Amberpet Police said S. Akshita studied till class VIII and dropped out of school a year ago, as her parents were living separately.
“The father lodged a complaint, but did not state a possible cause for the suicide. No suicide note was found and the case has to be investigated,” Sub-Inspector S. Veeriah said.
Man killed

Analysing CCTV footage, the police zeroed in on the accused persons, who are rag pickers, and arrested four of them on Tuesday evening.
The accused — Sai Kumar, Ganesh, Mallesh and Basvanth Kumar — were known to the deceased, Mr. Reddy said. “It appears that it was a tiff over ₹400,” he said.
