11 year old from Bradford ends life after being bullied
Quote:
Police are investigating the boy's death, which occurred at his home in Whetley Hill last night (Wednesday).
Police attended an address in Tile Street after unconfirmed reports the schoolboy had hung himself.
Bradford West Labour MP Naz Shah said on her Facebook page today that she had met with the parents of the boy, who she named as Asad, yesterday evening.
She wrote on her page: "This evening, 11-year-old Asad took his own life. Asad had just started his new school recently and bullying is something that has been mentioned."
Asad was a pupil at Beckfoot Upper Heaton School, formerly Belle Vue Boys School, which this morning released a statement about the death.
"It is with great sadness that we learnt last night of the death of Asad Khan one of the school’s newest students," it said.
"The school is united in its grief at this sad time. The school community is working together as students, parents and staff come to terms with these events. All our thoughts are with Asad’s family at this terribly difficult time."
A West Yorkshire Police spokesman said today: "Police were called by ambulance staff to an address in Tile Street, Bradford, at 4.19pm yesterday after an 11-year-old boy was found in an unresponsive state.
"The boy was taken to hospital, but sadly died a short time later.
A police spokesman declined to say how the boy had died, but said a post-mortem examination was expected to take place later today.
He said the boy was found in the house by a family member but could not confirm reports that it was his mother. They then alerted paramedics.
