The deaths have led the police to investigate the events leading the family to the hotel and the motive behind it.
The DCP North East Bengaluru, GK Mithun Kumar, said police have taken up the case and are verifying all aspects of the incident. A note purportedly left by the accused is also being investigated.
The note, he said, relates to marital disputes and suspicion about his wife. Police are still investigating whether the note is authentic and what it contains, and they have not yet determined the motive behind the deaths.
The two victims’ ages also added to the shock surrounding the case. The children, five and 10, were allegedly killed in the hotel room where they were visiting with their father.
After the discovery, police started investigating the circumstances of the incident and collecting evidence. Hotel records, CCTV footage and other pieces of evidence are expected to be examined to establish the order of events leading to the deaths.
The accused father’s medical condition is also likely to be relevant to the investigation. He was initially found in critical condition after the alleged suicide attempt; police have said that he is now out of danger.
Investigators will also be trying to determine if there were any previous disputes or incidents in the family that could provide some context for the tragedy. Police are also looking at marital problems and suspicion of his wife in the purported note, they said.
The accused will be questioned once his medical condition allows and given medical advice and the investigation. His statement could provide investigators with evidence of what happened inside the hotel, investigators said.
So the two children’s deaths have caused serious concern. Police continue to investigate the incident from a variety of angles that go beyond the fact that one note was said to be written.
The motive and sequence of events will be determined only after the evidence collected in the investigation is verified, he said.
The tragic deaths have also highlighted the vulnerability of children caught in the midst of a very difficult family battle. Police are investigating the marital conflict that was mentioned in the note, but they are going to have to establish the facts as they witness it.
The investigation will go on, and it is hoped authorities will figure out exactly what happened at the hotel, how the two children died, and what could be the cause of their father’s actions.
Police have advised that speculation be avoided during the investigation. The case is still being investigated, and investigators are trying to understand what was at the root of the deaths.
