Hyderabad: A Hyderabad stockbroker's family allegedly committed suicide by setting themselves on fire.
Police found the charred remains of Upender, his wife 25-year-old Swapna and their two-and-a-half year old son Akshaj at their home early on Thursday morning.
Upender was a stock broker at Saidabad in Hyderabad and police say the crash in the stock market could have prompted him to take the extreme step.
The bodies were taken to a hospital for post-mortem.
Police suspect the family committed suicide on Wednesday night by setting off the LPG cylinder on fire.
"All the doors where locked from inside and scene of offence says it's a sure case of suicide. We are getting reports that Upendra was stock broker and due to losses, he committed suicide," police inspector Sriniwas said.
