KATHMANDU, August 1: The bodies of four members of the same family, who were found dead in a house in Tarakeswar Municipality-2, Kavresthali,  Kathmandu, have been taken for post-mortem.

The forensic team of Nepal Police and Teaching Hospital Maharajgunj picked up the dead bodies after conducting the necessary investigation at the scene. The postmortem will be carried out at TU Teaching Hospital in Maharajgunj, Kathmandu.

The deceased are Dinesh Pandey, 41, his wife Sunita Pandey, 39, daughter Ashika Pandey,13, and Son Ashiq Pandey,8. The police have suspected that Dinesh might have committed suicide after killing his family members. A four-page suicide note was found at the incident sight as well.

Dinesh, who had returned to Nepal four and a half years ago after staying in Kuwait for 12 years for foreign employment, had opened a shop in Padmashali but sold the shop some time ago.

According to the police, there were some misunderstandings between Dinesh and Sunita and the couple had visited the Police Circle, Balaju, three times in the past. They say that they had decided to ‘reconcile’ at last. 

Further investigation is underway.
