Summary
- Mother and two adult sons found deceased in their locked Delhi flat.
- Family faced severe financial distress and mounting debts.

An eerie silence now shrouds a Kalkaji flat where a 52-year-old woman and her two adult sons were found dead. The discovery was made by authorities executing an eviction order, as the family had not paid rent for two years. Neighbours revealed a history of profound isolation and recent suicide attempts by the sons, underscoring severe mental health struggles.
Relatives indicated the family had been estranged for years, with limited contact even after the father's passing due to COVID-19 complications. Police noted the family's deep financial distress, with the unemployed sons having taken numerous small loans totaling between Rs 10-15 lakh from many individuals.
A note found at the scene suggested the deaths were linked to depression. The sons' last communications involved requests for phone recharges, money, and job inquiries, painting a grim picture of their final days. Their limited phone contacts further emphasized their withdrawal from society.
