Bantwal, Nov 22: In a bizarre incident that occurred on Thursday, November 22, at Maninalkur Pattanadi near here, a couple committed suicide and informed the same to their son seconds before killing themselves.
The deceased couple is identified as Premanath Poojary and Chandravathi.
While Chandravathi killed herself by hanging from the wooden log attached to the roof of the house, her husband Premanath committed suicide by tying a rope around his neck and jumping into the well of the house.
It is said that Premanath Poojary called his son in the morning of Thursday and informed him that both he and Chandravathi are going to kill themselves and disconnected the call immediately. It is learnt that the couple used to quarrel everyday and this might be the reason for their extreme action.
Rural police station sub-inspector Prasanna Kumar visited the spot and registered a case.
