Delhi Police Investigates Occult Angle in Vasant Kunj Suicide Case

The Delhi police are reviewing the 2018 Burari suicide case to explore a potential 'occult practice' angle in the recent deaths of Heera Lal Sharma and his four daughters in Vasant Kunj. Found with red threads tied on their bodies, the police are examining evidence including CCTV footage and poison traces.

The Delhi Police has launched an investigation into the recent suicide case where Heera Lal Sharma and his four daughters were found dead in Vasant Kunj, southwest Delhi. Officials are exploring a potential 'occult practice' link, inspired by the 2018 Burari suicide case.

All five bodies were discovered adorned with red threads, raising concerns of ritualistic behavior. The police recovered three packets of Celphos poison, a box of sweets, and suspicious liquid from the scene. Sharma had reportedly been emotionally and financially distraught since his wife passed away from cancer last year.

Authorities are meticulously examining CCTV footage and other evidence to compile a comprehensive report. The postmortem is scheduled for Monday, and the police have mobilized multiple teams to uncover the reasons behind this suspected suicide pact.
