Four sisters commit suicide in North Tripura

Agartala, Jul 22 (UNI) Four sisters committed suicide by consuming poison at Sakhaibari village in North Tripura following a dispute with their mother.

Police said here today that the daughters of retired school teacher Jalal Uddin Ahamed - Soma (22), Rima (15), Nilima (13) and Masuma (4) - were found dead in a room of their house last night.

Preliminary investigation revealed that Soma had a feud with her mother Sebi Sukkur over academic issues.

Police suspected that Soma persuaded her younger sisters to consume poison before committing suicide herself.

However, Mr Ahamed stated to police that his wife had been suffering from psychological problems, which was the root cause of trouble in the family.
