A couple from Maharashtra was found dead in a rented room in southeast Delhi’s East of Kailash area on Monday, according to the police. The incident was reported at Amar Colony Police Station at 9:08 am, prompting a police team to reach the rented accommodation in Sant Nagar, East of Kailash. Upon arrival, the police found that the room had already been forced open by one of the woman’s friends or neighbors after repeated attempts to contact the occupants failed.
Inside the room, the 26-year-old woman, a resident of Nagpur in Maharashtra, was found lying dead on the bed, while the man, identified as 30-year-old Anmol Kunda Patil, also from Maharashtra, was found hanging from the ceiling fan with a nylon rope. A handwritten note, believed to have been written by the man, was seized for examination by the police. The contents of the note were not revealed.
Both bodies were sent to the AIIMS mortuary for post-mortem examination. The police are currently investigating the incident and the exact cause behind the suspected suicide. According to a police officer, the cause of death would be ascertained after the post-mortem report and forensic examination of the recovered material.
