Nagpur, May 1 (PTI) The bodies of a woman and her 29-year-old married daughter were found hanging at their residence in Nagpur city on Friday morning with the police suspecting it to be a case of suicide.
The deceased, identified as Sangeeta Dhabale (52) and her daughter Akanksha Brahme, were found hanging at their house in Vyankatesh Nagar area under Nandanvan police station limits.
Akanksha had lost her newborn baby two months ago and was staying with her mother, the police said.
When Akanksha’s husband Lokesh came to their house around 7 am on Friday and knocked on the door, he did not get any response from inside.
“As the door was locked from inside and there was no response, he peeped through the window and was shocked to find the mother-daughter duo hanging. Neighbours then broke open the door,” a police official said.
It appears appears to be a case of suicide. The baby’s death could have prompted them to take the extreme step, he said, adding that investigation was underway. PTI COR NP
