SURAT,GUJARAT : Four members of the same family were found dead in a residential apartment in Jahangirpura on Saturday morning. The tragedy occurred at Rajhans Residency in Jahangirpura and the deceased are all relatives.
The deceased have been identified as Jashuben Keshavbhai Vadher, 58, Shantuben Vadher, 55, Gauben Hirabhai Mewada, 55, and Haribhai Danbhai Mewada, 60. The Surat police initially suspect food poisoning or asphyxia as a result of a gas leak from the gas geyser, which was found operational when the police reached the spot on Saturday morning.
On Friday evening, the family had assembled at Jashuben’s house as they had come to see her son who was operated in the hospital. They ate mango pulp and rotis delivered from a nearby hotel. According to accounts, Shantuben Vadher vomited just before her death, adding to the intrigue surrounding the occurrence. The bodies were discovered the next morning by a relative who arrived with breakfast. The situation was grim at the flat in Surat where an an old guy lay on a mattress on the floor, two ladies were on the bed, and another woman was found face down with symptoms of vomiting.
Police have requested that the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) ascertain the exact cause of death. The FSL has completed its sampling, and the findings are pending. DCP Rakesh Barot claimed that the investigation is looking into both food poisoning and probable gas inhalation from the geyser. Following the PM report, more steps will be considered.
Jashuben Vadher, the flat’s owner, was approaching retirement after working as a peon. Her sisters Shantuben and Gauben, as well as brother-in-law Haribhai, had come to check on Jashuben’s kid, who had recently undergone surgery. After eating, the family spent the night together, unknowing of the impending catastrophe.
“We discovered that the gas geyser was operating, which could have had a role. There were no severe injuries to the bodies, and it does not appear to be a suicide,” DCP Barot noted. The post-mortem report is critical to determining the cause of their premature deaths.
The Vadher family, who owned a shoe store, was well-known in the neighborhood. Jayendrasinh, a relative, described the terrifying discovery: “A relative who came with breakfast found them in a suspicious state and immediately alerted us and the police.” My aunty owned the house, and her husband died from COVID-19 in 2021.”
