Bengaluru: Two girls, dad end life; mom had died of Covid earlier

BENGALURU: A 42-year-old unemployed man and his two daughters died by suicide in their rented house in Ambedkar Colony, Attibele, off Hosur Road, on Thursday.

Satish and daughters Keerthi, 18, a 1st year BSc student, and Monisha, 14, a Class 9 student, were going through tough times, police said.

Sathish’s wife Asha succumbed to Covid-19 two months ago and he lost his job six months ago. Sathish’s suicide note stated the death of his wife and unemployment pushed him and his daughters into depression and they decided to commit suicide. The incident came to light on Wednesday when Satish’s father came to check on him as he was not responding to his phone calls. He found the door locked and peeped through the window to see the bodies hanging from the ceiling.

Attibele police said Satish’s daughters had also signed the suicide note.
