Three-year-old boy in Kundapur taluk dies after sliding gate of resort falls on his body
Kundapur: Kota Police officers have filed a case against a resort owner in Kotathattu in the taluk following the death of a three-year-old boy, Sushant, on Tuesday as the sliding gate of the resort fell on him accidentally.
The deceased child Sushant was the son of Sudheer, a native of Katapady, who had visited Kotathattu 10 days ago and was staying at a relative's house here.
Sushant was playing with his friends outside the resort, owned by Prithviraj, when the sliding gate fell on the boy. A seriously injured Sushant was immediately taken to the government hospital at Kota, but reportedly died on the way.
Sudheer filed a complaint against Prithviraj with the Kota Police officers, alleging that his son died due to the negligence of the resort owner in ensuring that the gate was fixed firmly.
A case has been registered at the Kota Police Station based on the complaint by Sushanth's father and the police officers are investigating the incident.

Four of family found dead in Maharashtra’s Nanded district in suspected mass suicide
Nanded (PTI): A farmer, his wife and their two sons were found dead in two different locations in Maharashtra’s Nanded district on Thursday morning, in what police suspect to be a mass suicide, an official said.
Around 8 am, the bodies of Ramesh Sonaji Lakhe (51) and his wife Radhabai Lakhe (45) were discovered on a cot in their home at Jawala Murar village in Mudkhed tehsil, he said.

The bodies of their sons, Umesh (25) and Bajrang (23), were subsequently found on nearby railway lines. It appears they jumped in front of a speeding train, the official said.
Police inspector Dattatray Manthale told reporters, “The parents were found dead inside their home, while the sons took their lives on the railway tracks. We have asked a Forensic Science Laboratory team to collect evidence. The truth will come out only after a thorough technical investigation and autopsy.”
While the nature of their death appears to be part of a suicide pact, police said the exact circumstances remain unclear.
The family belonged to the small-scale farming community, but it is not yet confirmed if financial distress or a domestic crisis triggered the extreme step, the official said.
Neighbours described the Lakhes as a hardworking family who struggled against the odds of small-land farming to sustain themselves.
The Nanded rural police are recording statements of relatives and checking for notes or final messages left by the family.
