Bhopal: In Bhopal, a tragic incident unfolded on Wednesday night as the dead bodies of a 22-year-old man, identified as Manish Chakravarty, and a 19-year-old woman, Kiran Kewat, both hailing from Katni, were discovered in a hotel room on Hamidia Road. While awaiting autopsy and forensic results, investigators suspect a suicide pact.
Manish was found on the bed with a rope around his neck, and Kiran’s body was hanging from the ceiling fan. No suicide note was recovered and police did not find evidence pointing to third-party involvement. The room was locked from the inside.
The couple had checked into the hotel on Tuesday night. Police were notified by hotel workers on Wednesday night that the couple had not been seen during the day and were not answering the door, according to SHO Hanumanganj Awadhesh Singh Bhadouria..
The forensic team is examining a cell phone found in the room for potential clues. The victims’ families have been informed and are on their way to Bhopal. The bodies have been sent for autopsy, and the Hanumanganj police have initiated a case. The mysterious nature of Manish’s noose has left investigators puzzled.
SHO Bhadouria stated, “With the door locked from the inside, foul play by a third party seems unlikely. The post-mortem report will reveal the sequence of events and who succumbed first.”
He further mentioned, “It appears that Kiran and Manish were involved in a relationship and had eloped. Neither family was aware of their whereabouts when they left. The bags found in their room indicate their intention to stay away from home. Our investigation is ongoing.”
