Indore : In an unfortunate chain of events, a man and his wife committed suicide one after another following a minor domestic squabble. Two different police stations, Annapurna and Heera Nagar have registered cases and are investigating.

The chain reaction which began on Sunday evening culminated some time after midnight and within the span of seven hours both the husband and wife were dead.

Mukesh Talreja (38) runs a children’s readymade garment business in Palda. He along with his wife Kiran and two children reside on the second floor of a three-story house. His parents reside on the ground floor, while his elder brother and his family reside on the first floor.

Mukesh and his wife Kiran fought over some domestic issue after which Kiran stated that she would commit suicide by hanging herself. Enraged Mukesh stormed out of the house threatening to consume poison and commit suicide.

Kiran committed suicide by hanging herself. Annapurna police was called and they sent the body for autopsy and began tracing Mukesh. Mukesh’s family and friends also tried to contact him and made no less than 100 calls on his cell phone which went unanswered.

Finally a stranger answered the phone and told the family that the phone was found on a man who was lying near Bapat Square with froth coming out of his mouth. The family reached the spot so did the Heera Nagar police.

Mukesh was taken to Bombay Hospital where he died after midnight during treatment. Thus in a matter of seven hours the husband and wife died leaving their two children orphaned.

Annapurna and Heera Nagar police stations have registered cases and are coordinating investigations.
