A youth died from a razor-sharp kite-string slitting his throat in Gujranwala, the 24NewsHD TV channel reported on Sunday.
The deceased was identified as 24-year-old Mustafa.
The rescuers stated that his neck received a deep cut and he died on the spot.
The body was moved to a hospital.
The police have failed to curb kite flying in the city despite a ban imposed by the government.
