Nepal Minute - out of the ordinary

Crime

The murder investigations following the death of a family in Tarakeshwor, located northwest of Kathmandu, still continues as police prepare to analyse call details.
 
Dinesh Pandey, 41, his wife Sunita, 38, daughter Aashika, 13, and son Aashish, 8, were found dead inside their home on July 31.
 
Nepal Police said mobile phones and facebook accounts of the deceased couple have been sent to the police headquarters for further investigation. 
 
“We are still waiting for the post mortem report and we have sent their mobile phones and facebook accounts to the digital lab,” an official at the Metropolitan Police Circle Balaju said.
 
On the day of the murder neighbours suspected something was wrong after Aashika didn’t come out to catch her school bus at the usual time -9 am – prompting neighbours to check the house.
There, they were shocked to see dead bodies.
 
The neighbours immediately called the police and after reaching the site, police suspected that Pandey stabbed all three to death with a kitchen knife.
 
After preliminary observation of the site, police said he tried to hang himself to death but failed, after which he might have used the same knife to stab himself to death.
