A 15-year-old boy from Wales who was the victim of bullying has committed suicide.

From the article:


Simon Brooks, 15, of Tonyrefail, Rhondda Cynon Taf (RCT), died four days after taking tablets, having left a message alleging he was bullied.

Mrs Brooks told an inquest hearing: "He told me that he wished he had not done it and that it was stupid of him."
