Two brothers, their mother and their wives went inside the compound of government offices in Rajkot, in Gujarat, western India out of desperation to protect their home of 35 years after government’s attempt to demolish it because it was unsafe.
According to reports, both sons and their wives died of their injuries at Rajkot Civil Hospital as the mother struggles to stay alive.
‘They had sustained 90 to 95 per cent burns to their bodies. They were in a critical condition. We tried to save them but in the end we couldn’t do enough,” Dr Sanjay Shah said.
Daily Mail reports:
Hasumati Dalvani, 62, her sons Bharat Mansingh, 40, and Girish Mansingh, 38, and their wives Asha, 35, and Rekha, 33, had poured kerosene over their bodies before setting themselves ablaze.
Witnesses tried to extinguish the fires with pieces of curtain material, but were too late.
However, the mayor of Rajkot city, Janak Kotak, said the municipality had no plans to demolish the house and their grievances were with the residents.Police arrested four other people who assisted the family in their suicides.
The Rajkot Municipality has confirmed a compensation figure of £27,700 to the family.
