Deaceased farmer Manish died due to electrocution, his wife due to hanging, and the three children due to strangulation.

Evoking chilling memories of the Burari case, five members of a family were found dead inside their home in a village in Mathura on Tuesday. A suicide video message recorded by the deceased, Manish before his death was also found inside the house. 

In the video, he said, “We have died on our own will. It is no one’s fault. The police should not bother anyone. I was very upset, and that is why I request that no one should trouble anyone."

He also said that he had recently sold a plot of land for Rs 12 lakh and stated that he was not blaming the buyer.

Police also found a message written on a wall inside the house which read, “We, Manish and Seema, died on our own will."

A diary note and the video recording further pointed towards suicide, police said.

The deaths came to light after neighbours broke open a door in the morning when the family did not respond.

Police said the victims were Manish Kumar, 35, his wife Seema, around 32, and their three children – Honey, 8, Priyanshi, 5, and Prateek, 3. 

Initial suspicion was that the family may have consumed poison mixed with milk on Monday night, as glasses of milk were found near the bodies.

However, the post-mortem report revealed different causes of death.

Senior Superintendent of Police Shlok Kumar said Manish died due to electrocution, his wife due to hanging, and the three children due to strangulation.

“They were found dead inside a room of their house. The post-mortem reports indicate that Manish died due to electrocution, his wife due to hanging, while the three children died due to strangulation," the SSP told news agency PTI.
