Coimbatore:
The body of an 11th-standard student was found hanging from the ceiling in his hostel room of a private school in Udumalpet in Tirupur district on Wednesday, police said.
Following the incident, his parents and relatives as also other members of the public staged a protest in front of the school, they said.
A 'suicide note' recovered from the room said the boy was dejected after he was reportedly scolded by a teacher for scoring low marks in economics, leading him to take the extreme step, they added.
An eighth-standard student had fallen to death from the first floor of this school nearly two months ago, attracting angry protests by parents and public for two days.
On a complaint by his parents, a case was registered against the teacher and the school management for abetting suicide, extortion and collecting money in the name of holding special classes, they said.
