RAJKOT: A woman along with her two sons died by suicide in Dwarka town on Friday morning soon after her sons completed the last rites of their father who succumbed to coronavirus infection.

While the police did not get any suicide note, they are investigating the reasons for this extreme step.

According to the police, Jayesh Jain (60) a resident of Rukhmani Nagar in Dwarka town of Devbhumi Dwarka district who tested Covid positive two days ago died under treatment sometime after midnight on Thursday. He was cremated in a nearby crematorium at around 4am on Friday and two hours later, the family returned home at around 6am.

When the milkman came to their house at around 8:30am as per his routine, nobody opened the door for him. He then tried to go inside and found the door open. Upon entering the house, he was shocked to see the three bodies lying in the drawing room and immediately called the neighbours and also informed the police.

The deceased have been identified as Sadhna Jain (57) and her two sons Kamlesh (39) and Durgesh (35). According to cops, the family was living in a rented accommodation and were engaged in catering business. However, due to the pandemic conditions, their catering business had closed down and they were now selling homemade namkeens in the town.

Police inspector of Dwarka police station, G R Gadhvi said, “They returned home early in the morning after completing the last rites and probably were in state of shock. They had consumed pesticide. We are trying to contact the relatives.”

Superintendent of police Devbhumi Dwarka, Sunil Joshi said that primary investigation did not find any angle of financial crisis that could have triggered the mass suicide. “It’s possible that they may have taken this extreme step in an impulsive moment. We are trying to talk to the relatives of the deceased,” he added.
