A 17-year-old girl cooked up her own kidnapping story after she failed in her mid-term Class XII examinations, a report in this paper said. Worried about getting scolded by her father after her results were out, she sent an audio message on her father's Whatsapp saying that she has been kidnapped by a few people who will kill her.

The girl's father, who registered a police complaint, told the cops that his daughter went for classes in the evening, after which he received the message.
