In a gruesome incident, a French woman killed her adopted minor daughter and then committed suicide by slitting her throat, allegedly due to stress, in the coastal village of Anjuna in North Goa, which is known for its rave parties and nightlife.
According to the police, who discovered the bodies of 45-year-old Sevorine Martin Dumand Figerre and her seven-year-old minor daughter on Saturday morning, a suicide note allegedly left behind by the deceased suggested being under tremendous stress, which couldbjave led to the fatal act.
"We were called by her husband from France who had complained that his wife was picking his calls. When we opened the door using force we found the two bodies," Police Sub Inspector Vijaynath Kavlekar told The Pioneer.
The official also said that bodies had been sent to a government hospital for post mortem, which he said, would be conducted after the husband arrives from France next week.
