Bengaluru man kills 2 daughters at hotel, attempts suicide; note blames wife
A father allegedly strangled his two young daughters to death in a Bengaluru hotel. He was later found unconscious with his throat slit, attempting suicide. Hotel staff discovered the tragic scene after receiving no response from the room. A death note found at the scene cited marital issues as the motive. The accused is currently undergoing treatment while police investigate the incident.
A 40-year-old man, SG Imran, is accused of strangling his two daughters, aged 5 and 10, to death before attempting suicide at a five-star hotel near Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru on Monday. The victims, identified as five-year-old Sheik Zehara and 10-year-old Sheik Zoya, were found dead near the bed in the room. Imran himself was found unconscious with his throat slit with a knife, and has been undergoing treatment at a nearby private hospital.
According to hotel staff, Imran had checked into the fourth-floor room around 7.30pm on Sunday, stating he was there to receive a guest arriving from Dubai after midnight. Despite insisting he would check out by Monday morning, Imran failed to do so. Housekeeping staff knocked on the door twice, but received no response. The hotel manager entered the room at 5.30pm, finding the victims dead and Imran lying near the sofa.
A death note was discovered at the scene, allegedly written by Imran, expressing his dissatisfaction with his wife's affair and his decision to take his daughters with him. Police are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the deaths and the suspected suicide attempt.
