A 15-year old girl , Pragya Thapa, from East Nepal,
committed suicide by hanging herself after Brazil’s epic and humiliating loss
to Germany in the 2014 FIFA World Cup semifinal Tuesday.
According to the Nepal Police, Thapa, hanged herself
Wednesday morning after some of her friends teased her that her team had
suffered a humiliating loss to Germany.
The disheartened Pragya, a 10th hung herself when her mother
and sister also joined her friends and took Germany’s side, police said.
“She was anxious to
see Brazil in the final, but it went down to Germany. Some of her friends
started teasing her for supporting Brazil.
Later in the morning,
she took an extreme measure by hanging herself in her own room,” Sharad Thapa,
a Nepal Police inspector, said after preliminary investigation.
Pragya, who lived in a remote village around 250 miles from
Nepal’s capital city Kathmandu, was found by her mother hanging from the
ceiling in the room.
