KANPUR: A 56-year-old man and his daughter-in-law allegedly committed suicide on Monday night by consuming some poisonous substance in Asadpur village under Lavedi police station in Etawah district.
Their bodies were found lying on a cot by the family on early Tuesday morning. The deceased have been identified as Krishna Murari and his daughter-in-law Sarita (35).
According to police, Sarita was married to Krishna Murari's eldest son Pankaj, who works in Delhi. During the investigation it came to fore that Krishna Murari had an alleged affair with Sarita which was opposed by their family members due to which they decided to take the drastic step, police said. The incident came to light on Tuesday morning after Krishna Murari's brother, Prakash, on being informed by Sarita's six-year-old son, visited the house and found the two lying motionless on the cot. He rushed them to CHC Maheva where doctors declared them brought dead on arrival.
On being informed by the neighbours, the police rushed to the spot and started the investigation. No suicide note was found in the house, said a senior police officer. The villagers stated that the two were in an illicit relationship. "We have informed the woman's husband, who stays in Delhi," said SHO Lavedi Aman Singh. The bodies have been sent to the mortuary for the postmortem examination and the report is awaited to reach any final conclusion, the SHO added.
