In a tragic incident in Kolkata's Kasba area, three members of a family, including a young child, were discovered dead in their home, authorities reported on Tuesday. The victims have been identified as Somnath Roy, his wife Sumitra, and their son, Rudranil.

An alleged suicide note written by Somnath was found at the scene, although its content remains undisclosed. Somnath and Sumitra were found hanging, while their son's body was tied to Somnath. The family, residing in Haltu Purba Palli, may have been struggling with financial distress, though police are investigating other possibilities.
