In a tragic incident in Mumbai’s Kandivali (East), a 36-year-old woman and her eight-year-old son were discovered dead in their home on Monday morning. The deceased, identified as Pushpa Shivshankar Das and her son Shayan, were found hanging, leading police to initially suspect a murder-suicide scenario. However, confirmation awaits the results of the post-mortem examination.
The discovery was made by the woman’s husband, Shivshankar Gupta, a tempo driver, who returned home on Monday afternoon only to be met with silence. Upon peering through a window after receiving no response at the door, he saw the grim scene and subsequently broke in to find his worst fears confirmed.
The authorities from Samta Nagar police station have registered the incident as two accidental death reports and are actively investigating the situation to ascertain the sequence of events and motives behind the tragedy. The family was originally from West Bengal, adding another layer of sorrow as loved ones await clarity on the situation.
Police continue to piece together the details of the case, urging the public to refrain from speculation until the full findings are available. The case highlights the need for attention to mental health and family support systems to prevent such heart-wrenching occurrences.
