Four final-year female students at SMK 4 in Sarolangun regency, Jambi, attempted mass suicide by drinking pesticide at a boarding house in Aur Gading subdistrict, Sarolangun district on Friday.
The four students are being treated at Chatib Quzwain General Hospital. One of the students said they attempted suicide because they were afraid of failing to graduate because they failed to submit an assignment on time.
SMK 4 Sarolangun principal Yersukmini distanced the institution from blame. “The incident is purely because of the female students’ own doing, we cannot blame the teacher,” she said.
