Kolkata Family Tragedy: Three Women Found Dead, Three Kin Injured in Crash

Police are investigating whether the deaths and the car accident involving the same family were part of a coordinated suicide attempt linked to financial struggles.

  • Three women from the same family, including a teenager, were found dead with slit wrists at their home in Kolkata's Tangra area early Wednesday morning.
  • The discovery was made after a car accident involving three male family members led police to the residence; the car had crashed into a concrete pillar on EM Bypass.
  • Preliminary investigations suggest the family may have been attempting a coordinated suicide, potentially due to financial losses and debts related to their leather business.
  • One of the injured men reportedly told investigators that the deaths and crash were part of a suicide attempt, though police are still determining whether foul play was involved.
  • Authorities are awaiting post-mortem results to confirm the exact cause of death and are reviewing CCTV footage to understand the circumstances of the car crash.
