A teenage girl hanged herself in Jhenidah Monday afternoon after she was given to understand that he father was electrocuted because of her fault on the day.
The villagers buried both the father and the daughter in the evening.
The girl was identified as Arifa Khatun, 15, daughter of Alam Hossain of village Hudaputia under Jhenaidah sadar and a Class IX student of Hudaputia High School.
Officer-in-charge of Jhenaidah police station Iqbal Bahar Chowdhury said Alam Hossain, had told his daughter Arifa to turn off the main switch of their house before setting a new power connection to a shop.
But Arifa did not carry out the order accordingly and was engaged otherwise in the house.
When Alam started his work, he came in contact with the live wire and died on the spot.
Out of a guilty feeling, which was much more instigated by the neighbours, Arifa hanged herself in the evening, the OC said.
