According to PTI, during the interrogation it was revealed that Chetan Kumar’s live-in partner died in 2015 under suspicious circumstances after falling from the roof of a flat in Sahibada’s Rajendra Nagar Colony.
Without releasing the woman’s details, police said the case was dismissed as a suicide case at the time.

Investigators also said that the three minor sisters who died by suicide were more attached to their father than their mother, which is why they addressed their father in the suicide note. The mother is not mentioned in her diary which mentions her suicide.
Police have so far maintained that there was no foul play in the case and evidence suggests that the three sisters jumped one after the other.
Officials said autopsy reports did not indicate external involvement and that the victims’ injuries were consistent with a fall. No signs of assault or physical abuse.
