A 17-year-old student was found dead in her room in a girls' hostel in the Chitragupta Nagar police station area of Patna, police said on Tuesday.

According to the police, the girl hailed from Samastipur and was preparing for a competitive exam.

ASP Sadar Abhinav Kumar told ANI, "Preliminary investigation shows that she was preparing for law. We will get the confirmation from the parents, who are yet to reach here. The body was found hanging here."

The forensic team has examined the hostel room and taken all the evidence. The police are investigating all angles, including suicide.
