A bullet has put end for the life of a 20-year-old girl from the village of Quli Beg of Shiwan sub-district northwest of Kirkuk Northern Province Sunday evening, a source from Shiwan police told KirkukNow.
"The girl, 20, was found dead at their house in Quli Beg village with a bullet in her body," the police source anonymously told KirkukNow. "It was suicide yet the investigations will be carried out."
The lady was receiving treatment for cancer since two years and one of her legs were amputated "which made her desperate and pushed her to commit suicide," he added.
