MEDININAGAR, JHARKHAND – A couple and their two-month-old baby were found dead under suspicious circumstances in Jharkhand’s Palamu district, according to police. The incident took place at Teliadih village, approximately 230km from Ranchi, and authorities suspect that the deaths may be the result of poisoning.
Upon receiving a report from villagers, police arrived at the scene and discovered that the mother and child were already deceased, while the man, identified as Jogendra Bhuinya, was barely alive. Despite being rushed to Chhatarpur divisional hospital, he passed away shortly after arrival. The bodies of the deceased have been sent for postmortem examinations to determine the exact cause of death.
According to Naudiha Bazar police station in-charge Aman Kumar, the couple had reportedly been involved in a domestic dispute the night before the incident, leading them to sleep separately. When villagers attempted to check on the family the following morning, they discovered the tragic scene and promptly alerted the authorities.
Chhatarpur sub-divisional police officer (SDPO) Ajay Kumar stated that the deaths of all three individuals are deemed suspicious, pending the results of the postmortem examinations. Villagers shared that the couple had tied the knot just two years before the tragic incident occurred.
Investigations are ongoing, and authorities are working to uncover the circumstances surrounding the deaths of the young family. The community is shaken by the tragic loss, and individuals are patiently awaiting the findings of the postmortem examination to shed light on this devastating event.
