Two youths were arrested Thursday over the suicide of a schoolgirl whom they were allegedly blackmailing with digitally altered photos of her on the internet.

The case of internet shaming and loss of a young life has stirred angry demands on social media in Egypt for those responsible to be held to account.

A source in the prosecutor general’s office said she was being blackmailed after having refused to have a relationship with the youths. “Her face had been attached to the body of someone else,” their father, Khaled Chalabi, told local media. “She’s my daughter, I know her well and she’s not like that.”
