The Story in Brief
A 40-year-old Bengaluru man allegedly strangled his two daughters, aged 10 and 5, inside a five-star hotel room near Kempegowda International Airport and then attempted suicide by slitting his throat, police said. The girls' bodies were discovered on the bed on Monday evening; the father was found injured in the toilet. The man, identified as SG Imran of Nagawara, had checked in with the children on Sunday.
Police recovered a handwritten note citing marital disputes and suspicion of the wife's fidelity. Imran reportedly told investigators, 'I didn't want my kids to grow up with this kind of mother.' He is hospitalised and out of danger. Deputy Commissioner of Police GK Mithun Kumar said a murder case has been registered and the motive is being investigated.
The Indian Opinion
This tragedy is already being used to push simplistic narratives about broken families and women's independence. But the core issue is a man who chose murder over seeking help. The police must now investigate whether there were prior signs of instability or threats. The wife's account will be critical. Will the note and family interviews reveal if this was genuinely about suspicion or something deeper?
