Tension grips a quiet neighborhood in Kolkata after a man’s body was found suspended by a rope in his apartment. Sunny Singh, 34, lived with his wife Punita and daughter Tanisha in a rented flat in Sarshuna. Now, his death is under intense scrutiny with allegations of murder leveled against his spouse and her kin.
According to police, the discovery unfolded dramatically Tuesday night. Punita, confined to a separate room with the door bolted from outside, sought help from neighbors to escape through the balcony. Upon entering the main area, she confronted the grim sight of Sunny hanging.
Sunny battled alcoholism, a vice that poisoned his marriage with frequent brawls. The previous evening saw yet another explosive fight, culminating in him throwing Punita and Tanisha out. Cops mediated their return, but tragedy struck hours later.
Postmortem results at Vidyasagar hospital pinpointed strangulation as the cause, with ligature marks as the sole injury. Sunny’s sister Sangita Shaw wasted no time filing charges against Punita and brother-in-law Rakesh Paswan, igniting a full-scale investigation.
Authorities have begun interrogating those implicated, scouring for evidence that could distinguish suicide from slaying. Neighbors whisper about the couple’s volatile past, wondering if bottled rage finally boiled over. This case underscores the dark undercurrents in domestic lives, where everyday conflicts can spiral into catastrophe. Kolkata police vow a thorough probe to uncover the truth.
