A couple committed suicide allegedly by consuming pesticides at Babhani Bajar village under Kargahar police station limits of Rohtas district on Friday night.
Their family members got to know about the incident late at night when both became critical. They were admitted to a private clinic at Sasaram where they died on Saturday morning.
Kargahar station house officer Sushant Kumar Mandal said he was informed about the incident after the couple’s family cremated the bodies. Police were investigating the case and finding the private clinic that also did not inform the police about the incident, Mandal said
The deceased man could not get a job due to the Covid lockdown so he shifted to agriculture farming and took loans from several people for livelihood. The couple was frustrated and depressed, a local said.
