The incident came to light in the morning when the couple’s domestic help came to work.
As there was no response for a long time to the doorbell, the domestic help contacted Deepak’s mother, who then informed a relative living close by.
The relative also tried several unsuccessful attempts to reach them on the phone, after which the police were called.
The cops opened the door of the flat with duplicate keys and found the couple lying lifeless.
