A 28-year-old woman and her two minor children were found hanging in their home in Chhattisgarh’s Balod district, police said on Saturday.
Police suspect that the woman killed her two children first before dying by suicide.
The bodies of Hemlata Sahu, her son Khomedra (4) and daughter Trisha (2) were found hanging in their home at Kochera village under Gurur police station limits on Friday, a police official here said.
The woman’s husband is a mason and he was out on work at the time, while her father-in-law was in a hospital to take care of Hemlata’s mother-in-law, who is unwell, the official said, citing preliminary information.
