The woman left a suicide note blaming morphed photos of her posted on Facebook.
Chennai:
Six days after morphed and obscene pictures of her were posted on Facebook, a 21-year-old in Tamil Nadu has hanged herself.
The victim, Vinupriya, was found dead yesterday in Salem, where she lived with her parents. A suicide note suggested that her parents did not believe that she had not sent nude pictures of herself to whoever posted them online.
Vinupriya had graduated a year ago from college with a degree in Chemistry.
Her photos were posted on a Facebook page that was created by someone in her name, said the police.
"We've filed a case of abetting suicide and have blocked the Facebook page which carried her pictures" said Amit Kumar, a senior police officer handling the case.
He added that Facebook has been asked to share details of the person who posted the obscene photos.
