A 12-year-old Cambodian girl in Thailand was tragically electrocuted in her home while using her sister’s phone that was charging.

She was pronounced dead after being rushed to hospital

Unfortunately, the girl was pronounced dead after she was sent to a hospital, reports Thairath.
The girl often played on her phone while charging it despite being warned of its dangers multiple times.
Her 17-year-old sister, Ms Nuch, said that on the fateful day of the accident, the victim had fallen asleep while using the charging device.
