Three minor girls died after allegedly jumping from a ninth-floor flat in Ghaziabad, and police say online gaming influence is a key part of the probe. The victims, aged 16, 14 and 12, were sisters from the same family. Police said they were “highly addicted” to an online Korean task-based game and deeply influenced by Korean culture. Officers said diary notes with an apology were found. “They portrayed themselves as Korean princesses,” an officer said. The girls locked themselves inside a puja room after midnight and jumped using a window, police added. Family members had earlier tried to restrict phone use, officials said. (PC: India Today)
