KARACHI: A teenage boy died by suicide in a Saddar locality on November 14, police said.
Preedy SHO Ayub Mirani said that Shoaib, 16, ended his own life by shooting himself at his home on Akbar Road near DC Street.
He said the parents of the boy had gone to attend a wedding in the area while their son was home alone. The teenager used his father’s licensed pistol to take the extreme step.
The officer attributed the suicide to a family issue.
The body was taken to the Civil Hospital Karachi but the family told the police and doctors that they did not want any legal proceedings, Mr Mirani added.
