Agra, Feb. 23 -- It was a tearful moment when last rites of five members of a family were performed in village Nagla Bhojraj within limits of Amanpur police station of Kasganj district on Sunday. All five were found dead on Saturday evening in a room locked from inside; no activity had been seen in the family for the last couple of days. Police officials admitted that the family did not seem financially well off. It is feared that the head of the family, a 50-year-old man, might have poisoned three minor children aged 9, 10 and 12, and killed his wife before hanging himself. Additional superintendent of police (ASP) Kasganj Sushil Kumar said that post mortem report, received on Sunday evening, assigned hanging as reason for death of the man. Hemorrhage or excessive flow of blood is assigned as reason of death for his wife while viscera of three children has been preserved indicating poisoning to kill them. The parents were cremated on Sunday while minor children were buried at a ground in village Nagla Bhojraj. Villagers from nearby areas gathered when last rites were being performed. ASP said the bodies, when recovered on Saturday evening, were stinking, and thus it might have been more than a day since they died. "The exact time of death could be assigned only after the post mortem report is received," stated ASP Kumar on Sunday. According to police, the family relied on the petty work of welding which was carried out in the front part of the house where they lived.
