Hyderabad: Three members of a family were found dead at their residence in Vandanapuri Colony of Ameenpur police station limits in Sangareddy district.
Though the incident took place about two days ago, it came to light only on Thursday.
Bodies of Srikant Goud (42), his wife Anamika (40), and their daughter Snigdha were found at their residence in Ameenpur in Sangareddy district on Thursday.
The incident came to light when Anamika's father Ramachandra Murthy visited the house as the couple was not responding to phone calls for the last two days. As there was no response to the door knocks, he alerted the police.
Police broke open the door and found the couple and their daughter dead.
The couple is believed to have ended their lives in a suicide pact after poisoning their daughter.
Police shifted the bodies for autopsy and launched an investigation.
Srikant was employed at a leading software firm in Hyderabad, while his wife was working as a teacher at a corporate school. The couple had an inter-caste marriage.
Srikant was said to be under depression and this is suspected to be the cause for the suicide pact.
