May 13, 2015 16:13
The mother (pictured) of one of the three athletes who attempted suicide has said she is unhappy with the probe and will attempt suicide unless the CBI takes over the investigation.
The Sports Authority of India (SAI) has reportedly given a clean chit to its officials in connection with the death of a female athlete and suicide bids by three others at its centre in Kerala's Alappuzha district recently.
Fifteen-year-old Aparna, a budding rower, died last Thursday while three other girls remained critical after they ate a poisonous fruit.
According to media reports, an internal probe by the director general of SAI revealed that the girls attempted suicide but probably due to a feeling of guilt after consuming beer at the SAI centre.
The girls were advised by senior students and teachers after they revealed that they had beer. Their guilt might have driven them to the extreme step, the report said.
Reports suggested that a suicide note featuring the names of some senior students was found from the deceased.
There were reports that it was ragging and harassment from seniors and trainers that led to the suicide of the girl.
