Kottayam: 

A man and his wife were found dead in their rented home near Erattupetta on Monday morning, in what police suspect to be a case of suicide.

The dead have been identified as Rashmi (35), a nursing superintendent at a private hospital, and her husband, Vishnu (36), a contract worker, police said.

The couple had been living in a rented house in Panayappalam for the past six months.

The incident came to light after Vishnu's mother was unable to contact them by phone. Following enquiries by neighbours, both were found dead, with their hands tied using what appeared to be medical adhesive tape.

The bodies of Vishnu and Rashmi were discovered lying close together, police added.

While preliminary indications suggest suicide, police stated an investigation is underway to determine the exact cause of death.

About The Campaign

NDTV in partnership with UBER is launching a sustained campaign 'Roshan Dilli'  to try and raise safety standards in India's capital, New Delhi.

Our focus is to try and improve lighting in public spaces in the city. Lighting is a key factor in shaping women's perceptions of safety

The initiative will provide a platform for all stakeholders to discuss our goal of improving safety standards, to start a conversation about safety of women in the country

It will also highlight various interventions and solutions that help to make women safe and put the spotlight on what more can be done.

The campaign will accentuate the need for Safety to be a shared responsibility

The need for gender sensitization and how law enforcement and civil society through checks and education can try and make women safer

We hope you will join us and help make New Delhi a safer city for women.
