In a chilling incident, a couple was found dead in their home on Wednesday in Malingajodi under Dasmantpur block of Koraput district in Odisha. The deceased couple has been identified as Naresh Nayak and his wife Bhabani Nayak. 

According to reports, the husband was found hanging from the ceiling while the wife’s dead body was found lying on the bed. The husband’s hands were found tied from the back with a drape.

“I received a call from my son-in-law’s father that they both are dead. When I reached the place, I saw my daughter lying dead on the bed and her body was swollen while my son-in-law was hanging from the ceiling by a drape,” said the father of the victim woman.

“This is not a case of suicide and something bad might have happened. I urge an investigation after which the truth can be established,” claimed the father.

The couple tied the knot last year. The sudden demise of the couple has left the whole village in shock.
