According to report, Lathitha spoke openly about the bullying she endured on social media platforms and how she was contemplating suicide before eventually swallowing pesticide and died in hospital on Wednesday, November 17 in the Eastern Cape.

Calls from all quarters are being made to get to the bottom of the matter.

Khula Community Development Project’s, Petros Majola says a program needs to be developed to stop bullying in schools.

"Let us sit down and develop a program that deals with bullying at schools. We are aware that they do have their own policies but at the same time we are not sure that they are vocal about these policies.”

The Provincial Department of Education is also investigating the circumstances leading to her suicide.
