Hyderabad: A 13-year-old boy, who was down with chicken pox, died, allegedly by suicide in Kanchanbagh on Tuesday. He was reportedly upset after his parents asked him not to go out as he had chicken pox.

The boy Abdul Rehman, lived with his parents at Hafeez Baba Nagar under the Kanchanbagh police station limits. A few days ago, Rehman contracted chicken pox and his parents advised him not to mingle with other children. However, he insisted on going out and meeting his friends as they were playing on the street.
