โ€œBoth Manjulaben and Falguni died apparently due to drug overdose while Dr Darshana is undergoing treatment at the civil hospital where the police recorded her statement,โ€ Times Now quoted ACP DJ Chavda as saying.

Dr Darshana told the police that she was fed up with her life, he said.

โ€œSince her mother and sister were dependent on her, she wanted to take their life before killing herself. She said she injected them with a sleep-inducing drug. The exact drug injected will be known after postmortem,โ€ Chavda said.

Dr Darshana was living with her mother, sister, brother and sister-in-law at Sahajananad Society in the Katargam locality under the Chowkbazar police station.

Her brother and sister-in-law were not at home at the time of the incident.
