Bengaluru man suspected of killing two daughters at Taj Hotel
Something very sad happened at a big hotel in Bengaluru, India.
A father named S G Imran is suspected of hurting his two little daughters, Shaik Zehra, who was 5 years old, and Shaik Zoya, who was 10 years old.
On Monday, the hotel's cleaning staff found the girls dead on a bed and called the police.
Police also found Imran hurt in the room, with a cut on his neck and a bloodied knife nearby, so he was taken to Manipal Hospital.
Police believe he hurt his daughters first, and then tried to hurt himself with the knife.
Hotel cameras showed him walking around the hotel for almost four hours before going back to the room.
Police found a note he had written.
In the note, he said he was angry with his wife and accused her of having a relationship with another man, and that he did not want his children to grow up with her.
One report says Imran is still in critical condition, while another says he is out of danger.
Police have registered a murder case and will talk to his family to find out what really happened.
S G Imran, 40, is suspected of killing his daughters Shaik Zehra, 5, and Shaik Zoya, 10, in a room at Taj Hotel in Bengaluru.
Police said the initial probe suggests Imran strangled his daughters before attempting suicide by slashing his throat with a knife, which was found bloodied nearby.
CCTV footage showed Imran wandering the hotel for nearly four hours after the alleged killings before returning to the room, where hotel staff later found the girls' bodies on a bed.
A recovered note reportedly cited a marital dispute, with Imran accusing his wife of cheating and claiming he had proof of her relationship with another man.
The articles differ on Imran's condition — one says he is out of danger while another says he is critical — and police are registering a murder case and verifying his claims.
