Moreover their craze towards online gaming made them distracted from the real world. Hence after some time they even became irregular for their school. Parents used to snatch their phone from their hand as they would sit for long hours on mobile phones and barely detach themselves into reality.
Police said they will analyse these girls’ phones to seek more data and know what else they were involved in.
Police Commissioner Atul Kumar Singh said they recovered a suicide note form the site saying they are sorry and also made a crying caricature. They thought they were not Indians but Koreans as they were highly obsessed with the game. They portrayed themselves as Korean princesses under the influence of the game. More details are to be investigated, said the team.
