Kolkata: Police in Kolkata on Tuesday said that a couple and their child were found hanging from their residence at Haltu area of Kolkata.
Official sources said that the deceased have been identified as auto-driver Somnath Roy, 40, his wife Sumitra Roy, 35, and their son Rudranil Roy, 2 and a half years old.
A team from the local police station rushed to the spot on receiving the information, recovered the three bodies, and sent them for post-mortem examinations. Initial investigation suggests the couple committed suicide after hanging the kid from the ceiling.
However, details on the matter will surface only after the autopsy report is available. A suicide note has been recovered by the investigating officials from the spot of the incident. However, the police are tight-lipped over its contents.
Initial investigation has also revealed that an acute financial crisis might be the reason for the couple to adopt such a drastic step. However, a police source said that the investigating officers are probing all angles to find out whether there is any foul play behind the tragedy.
