Mass suicide in Maharashra?: 9 members of a family found dead in Sangli district

New Delhi: A suspected case of mass suicide has come to light from Sangli district of Mahrashtra, where nine members of a family have been found dead.

The bodies of 9 individuals were reportedly found from two buildings of the Mhaisal locality in Sangli. The houses belong to two brothers whose families lived with them in separate houses.
