(Before It's News)

The father of a teenage Canadian girl who killed herself after allegedly being raped by four boys has thanked hacktavist group Anonymous for their role in the case being re-opened.

Rehtaeh Parsons, 17, hanged herself after she was allegedly raped at a house party in 2011, and was tormented over the incident for more than a year after a photo of the alleged attack taken by one of the four boys began to circulate around the school.

She died on 7 April, two days after she was found hanged in her bathroom in her home in Halifax, Nova Scotia, after her parents decided to remove her from life support.

Police investigated allegations of sexual assault at a party in Cole Harbour but said there was insufficient evidence to charge anyone.

After her death, Anonymous threatened to reveal the names of the four boys who were allegedly involved in the assault in September 2011 if police did not bring charges forward.

Following public outcry over the case, Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Halifax Police confirmed they have re-opened the case against the four boys alleged to have assaulted her.
