JODHPUR: Three members of a family were found dead in their house in Shankar Nagar area of Jodhpur on Friday morning. While the father-son duo was found to have committed suicide by hanging themselves, the mother was apparently strangulated.
The incident surfaced when friends called up the man’s son in the morning. On not receiving any response, they reached his house. Seeing the boy lying on the bed with a rope around his neck they broke open the door and found the three family members dead.
Police have found a suicide note indicating that the family was under financial stress and debt.
The deceased have been identified as Rajendra Suthar (52), his wife Indra (47) and son Nitin (23). Nitin’s body was found lying on the bed in a room, while the parents were found in the next room, where the mother was lying on the bed while the father was hanging from the ceiling.
According to ACP Neeraj Sharma, the neighbours had seen all the family members taking a walk late night before retiring into the house. The ACP added that the spot observation suggested that the son first hanged himself, seeing whom the father cut the rope and laid him down.
“On finding him dead, he might have first strangulated his wife under depression and then hanged himself from the roof in the next room,” Sharma said. The mother’s body was found covered with a bedsheet on the bed.
According to the police, the father and son were working as contractors in a handicraft unit in Boranada industrial area and had been living in a rented house.
Sharma said that the exact timing of deaths could be known after the receipt of the postmortem reports, which would help in ascertaining the order of the deaths.
Sharma said that some names have been mentioned in a roughly scribbled suicide note as moneylenders, which was found under the bed of the parents’ room.
