The victim, Kalpesh (Vicky), was a student of Saraswati Vidya Mandir. He lived with his parents in Khoh village. His father, Sudama, works in a private company in IMT Manesar.
According to police, on Thursday evening Vicky was playing with a friend in the neighbourhood when the duo had a fight. The friend's mother intervened and slapped Vicky. He immediately rushed back to his house, reportedly disturbed. Next day, he came home early from the school and allegedly hung himself from the ceiling fan in his room.
When Vicky's mother and other family members did not see him for some time, they started searching for him and later found him hanging from the ceiling fan in his room.
A police team reached the spot and rushed Vicky to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared him dead on arrival. Vicky's father has accused Kamlesh, the woman who slapped his son, for his death. Kamlesh, originally from Indergarh in UP, lived with her family in a rented house, opposite the victim's house.
