A married woman was found dead along with her two minor children under mysterious circumstances at her house in Badarpur Said village of the district on Sunday. The police have launched a probe into the incident.

According to sources in the police, the incident came to light after Rahul, the husband of the deceased woman, contacted the police around 12.30 pm after finding his wife, Rajni (32), hanging from the ceiling of their house.

His two children, including a five-year-old daughter and a two-year-old son, were also found dead in the house.

The police suspect the children were strangulated before the woman committed suicide.

Rahul, who works at a private company and hails from the Lakhisarai district of Bihar, told the police that though he had left his house for office in the morning at around 9.30 am after having breakfast, but he had to come back to collect a bag that he had forgotten to take with him in the morning.

He said after reaching home he found the house locked from inside and tried contacting his wife, but he said, after knocking for more than 20 minutes, he thought something was wrong and informed the police. It was revealed that the police broke open the door after about half an hour and found the three deceased persons in the house. There were some marks of injury on them, it was alleged.

Rahul claimed that everything had been normal when he left the house, and he had no inkling about the reason behind the incident. The police, which has shifted the bodies for a post-mortem examination to the civil hospital, has announced to have launched an investigation into the matter. The exact cause of the death of the woman and her two children is likely to be revealed after the post-mortem examination and a probe, said the spokesperson of the police department.
