Ahmedabad Sisters’ Deaths Probe Shifts to Suspected Poisoning After Toxic Findings

Pending lab reports will decide the case's direction.

Overview

  • Investigators say tests on the parents found aluminium compounds and zinc in their blood, shifting focus from food contamination to possible poisoning.
  • Police seized Celphos pesticide packets and a family diary that spoke of a wish for a son, and they are now examining suicide and murder angles.
  • The dairy that sold the dosa batter reports no adulteration and says other buyers did not fall ill, and police say checks so far support that claim.
  • Forensic teams collected leftover food and household items, reviewed CCTV, and exhumed the infant’s body for a post-mortem to rebuild the timeline.
  • Final toxicology and autopsy reports will determine the cause of death and any criminal liability, while the parents remain in hospital.
