Police have recovered a suicide note allegedly belonging to a Form three girl who died by suicide at Tala Girls, Machakos county.
A nylon robe and a head scuff were also recovered from the scene.
In the letter, the girl blamed the school's administration for not believing her explanation that she wasn't involved in the theft of a colleague's property.
"I explain something, you create your own. I told you guys that I'm not responsible for the lost pencils, but you still believe in your own instincts that I am the one," the note seen by the Star reads in part.
"Well, only God knows. Since I don't want to cause more trouble in this school and make my mom suffer again because of me, let me cut off. May God bless you for always encouraging me bye bye, coming to meet you dad.
"For my mum, bye and I really love you so much. You occupy half of my heart while bro occupies another half. I hope that God may bless the work of your hands and also pray that my bro can succeed in his KCPE. I beg, pray and hope that you will not involve my mum in this because she can die very soon and she still has some tasks to do for my siblings. Hope so mother," the note reads.
A relative who accompanied her mother during the postmortem conducted at Kangundo Level 4 Hospital on Friday also read the note to reporters.
Autopsy results revealed that the girl died from suffocation.
"The postmortem has revealed that the child died by suicide. It's ok," the relative said.
The relative who sought anonymity blamed the girl's death on the school administration.
"These are minor souls, they should be handled carefully. Talk to them and take proper disciplinary action. Threatening children to the extent of taking their own lives isn't good," she said.
"We accept all because we have nothing to do. We will take the body and go bury, " she added.
The girl's death was reported at Tala police station under OB NO: 37/8/2022 as a suicide incident.
"After being asked by the deputy principal, she promised to bring the items. The deceased looked for the dorm's prefect at break time, who gave her the keys for the dormitory to bring the items to the deputy principal," the police report reads in part.
"The student took long to come back thus making the deputy suspicious and proceeded to the dormitory in the company of three other students only to find the lifeless body hanging from the roof rafters of the second floor of one of the dormitories bathroom," it added.
