Vasant Vihar triple suicide case: Family may have planned it months ago, say cops

NEW DELHI: A woman and her two daughters, who allegedly killed themselves at their residence in Vasant Vihar in Delhi on Saturday, may have "planned their suicides few months ago", police said.

Manju Srivastava (55) and her daughters Ankita (30) and Anshuta (26) had been depressed after the family head Umesh Srivastava died of Covid-19 last year. Financial difficulties had made their lives more miserable, their relatives said.

"From preliminary investigation and the contents of the suicide notes accessed by the police, it appears that the deceased family had been planning to commit suicide since last few months..." a police officer said.
