New Delhi: A 19-year-old girl allegedly committed suicide this afternoon in north-east Delhi's Khajuri Khas area, reportedly after being perturbed over an incident of harassment.

According to the police, the victim - Soni Kumari - was found hanging from a ceiling fan when her mother went to her room to call her for lunch.
