BAMS doctor allegedly commits suicide after killing wife, 2 sons
Nashik: A BAMS doctor, who owns a hospital in Rashin allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself at his residence after killing his wife and two sons by injecting them with some poisonous substance at Ahmedabad Nagar district on Friday night.
Police have secured a suicide letter from the scene where the doctor mentioned that his wife and he were forced to take the extreme step as they were unable to cope up with the struggle that their child had to go through due to his hearing impairment, adding that he took the decision with the consent of his deaf child.
As per a recent media report by Times of India, PI Chandrakant Yadav of the Karjat police station stated that the initial investigation suggested that the doctor injected his wife and two children with some poisonous medicine that caused their death.
