Read More: The Horrifying “Blue Whale” Social Media Game Has Been Linked With Two Child Suicides In Dubai<\/a><\/h4>\n

Blue Whale game is a twisted suicide\u00a0challenge perpetrated via social media where vulnerable teenagers are goaded to take their own lives.<\/p>\n

This horrifying game has been linked to more than 100 suicides across the world, and the Dubai Police now fear that it might just have come to the emirate.<\/p>\n

A recent case of suicides by two\u00a0Filipino students, a girl and a boy aged 15 and 16, have left the police baffled.<\/p>\n

The teenagers died after allegedly committing suicide a day apart. According to the Dubai police, both the students talked about committing suicides on their social media accounts.<\/p>\n

This is probably the reason why\u00a0sources are linking the death of the second teenager to the Blue Whale suicide challenge. Police, however, has yet to confirm this.<\/p>\n

Who were the victims?<\/h3>\n

According to Gulf News<\/a>, both were class 10 students of the United International Private School in Muhaisnah, but were not related to each other.<\/p>\n

The police told the publication that they were alerted about a suicide\u00a0incident in Al Ghusais on Tuesday. The victim, a girl,\u00a0was depressed and suicidal and had attempted something similar in the past.<\/p>\n
