A 40-year-old man allegedly strangled his two minor daughters to death before attempting suicide in a hotel room near Bengaluru airport on Monday. Police recovered a death note written by the accused, SG Imran, blaming his wife's extra-marital affair for his actions.
Imran checked into the hotel on Sunday evening, telling staff he had to receive a guest. When he did not check out, hotel staff opened the room and found the bodies of five-year-old Sheik Zehara and 10-year-old Sheik Zoya, with Imran lying unconscious with his throat slit. He is undergoing treatment while police investigate.
This tragedy invites a rush to blame the wife's alleged affair, but murdering children cannot be justified by any personal grievance. The note shifts responsibility onto her, yet the real failing is a society where a man sees no other option. Mental health support and early intervention remain absent from such narratives. We must ask: what stopped him from seeking help before this crime?
