Decomposed bodies of two brothers found in Aradhana Nagar
In another incident, the decomposed bodies of two brothers were found inside their locked rented room in Aradhana Nagar on Wednesday. Police said neighbours alerted them after noticing a foul smell coming from the room.
The deceased have been identified as Sunil Jawalkar (42) and his younger brother Krushna (37). According to sources, Krushna’s body was found on the floor, while Sunil’s was hanging from the ceiling fan. Krushna was reportedly suffering from cancer. The brothers, who lived alone without their families, were involved in the transport business.
A suicide note was found inside the house, in which one of the deceased appeared to have appealed to others to protect his brother. However, police are still unsure who wrote the note.
