Ghaziabad Triple Suicide Under Investigation for Possible Mobile Gaming Link as Diary Surfaces

Police are reviewing a diary plus a seized phone to assess a possible link to online gaming.

Overview

  • Three sisters aged about 15, 14 and 12 died after jumping from their apartment balcony around 2 a.m. in a Ghaziabad high-rise, police said.
  • Officers recovered an 18-page diary and messages on walls that included apologies and repeated references to "Korean," according to the report.
  • Family statements and initial police inquiries indicate the girls had withdrawn from school for 2–3 years and spent extensive time with phones, streaming content and games.
  • Relatives recently tried to restrict phone use, and investigators are examining whether that tension or a task-based game played any role, a point that remains unconfirmed.
  • Police have seized the phone for forensic analysis and are reviewing call logs, chats, app history and browsing data while exploring family, economic and mental-health factors.
