The incident came to light after Bengaluru hotel's security manager contacted the police about the suspected deaths of two children.
In Bengaluru, a 40-year-old man is accused of strangling his two minor daughters at a hotel before attempting suicide, police revealed on Monday. The incident came to light after a call was made from the Taj Hotel, according to ANI. The man was discovered unconscious in the same room with severe throat injuries and was promptly taken to a private hospital, where his condition is reported to be critical, stated the police.
The man, who resides in Nagawara, Bengaluru North, was identified by GK Mithun Kumar, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) for North East Bengaluru, after receiving an alert from the hotel. Upon arrival, police found the father in critical condition and subsequently transported him to Manipal Hospital. Preliminary investigations suggested that the father had allegedly strangled both girls, consistent with the findings in a suicide note left at the scene.
The note alluded to a marital dispute, with the father alleging he was suspicious of his wife's actions and claiming he had proof of her association with others. Police are currently examining digital evidence and investigating the circumstances surrounding the deaths, while registering a murder case and probing the events that transpired. The man remains under treatment, and authorities reported that he is currently out of danger.
