Mumbai:
A team of seven policemen from Mumbai Police has been formed to trace the accused who allegedly killed his parents, after evidence suggested that he may be contemplating attempting suicide, if he hasn't already done it.
After Mid-Day's report ('Man kills parents; spends two days beside their bodies') that Marol resident Moiz Bharmal allegedly strangled his parents late on Friday night, and is suspected to be mentally disturbed following his wife's demise, the MIDC police have not yet got any leads on his whereabouts.
"Suspecting that Moiz might have committed suicide, we have alerted all the hospitals, hotels, railway stations, jungles and police stations across the state.
A team of officers has been dispatched to Pune, along with Moiz's son Hussain, to question his friends and previous employers," said Senior Police Inspector Suresh Hujband from MIDC police station.
A 52-year-old Marol resident, Bharmal had allegedly strangled both his parents, stayed with the corpses for two days, ate and drank beside them, and even tucked them in as if they were asleep, before fleeing the house when the bodies started rotting. He left a note behind, accusing his parents of being malicious to him after he lost his job.
The unsettling and gruesome crime had been brought to the notice of MIDC police on Monday evening, after residents of Manisha Apartments located at Church Road, Marol, Andheri (East) complained of a foul stench, said cops.
