Speaking about the heartbreaking event, Rakesh Barot, Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in Surat, remarked, “Seven members of a family have committed suicide. They have written a suicide note, and we are verifying the reason.”
The discovery was made when local residents grew concerned upon failing to reach Manish Solanki this morning. Solanki, who employed around 35 carpenters and laborers, had been encountering financial hardships for a considerable period, according to residents of the locality. Worried about his well-being, his workers attempted to contact him but received no response, and their knocks on his door went unanswered.
Fueled by concern, the neighbors decided to take action, entering the family’s residence by breaking a window at the rear of the house. While the police have not yet disclosed specific details of the suicide note, it has reportedly cited financial woes as a factor contributing to the family’s desperate act.
However, the note refrains from identifying any particular individuals in connection with their distressing circumstances. In the wake of this incident, family relatives who arrived at the scene have opted to maintain silence, withholding further details.
