A Navy sailor and his two children are found dead at a home in Mumbai, prompting a police investigation. Investigators say preliminary findings indicate the sailor dies by suicide, while the children’s deaths are suspected to be caused by poisoning. Police are collecting witness statements and awaiting medical and forensic results to confirm the cause and sequence of events.
NDTV reports the sailor is found to have died by hanging, with the wife and two children suspected of having been poisoned. The Times of India similarly describes the sailor’s death as suicide and the children’s deaths as potentially poisoning, noting that post-mortem and forensic reports are awaited. While both outlets describe a suspected murder-suicide scenario, the exact circumstances and involvement of any other family members are to be determined through the ongoing probe.
