Delhi Police head constable, wife found dead inside Narela flat

Joint commissioner of police (Northern Range) Vijay Singh said the couple’s two children, aged 11 and 13, returned home from school and found their second-floor flat locked from inside, with their parents not responding to the doorbell and phone calls.

Police said the Narela police station received a call about the locked house around 1 pm.

“With the assistance of fire personnel, the main door was broken open. The couple was found dead in a room,” Singh said.

“Prima facie, it appears that the head constable first allegedly strangled his wife and then hanged himself. During the house search, no note was found,” Singh added.
