In a shocking incident, a woman and her teenage son were found dead in their house in Delhi's Lajpat Nagar, police said on Thursday.
The deceased were identified as 42-year-old Ruchika Sewani and her 14-year-old son Krish Sewani, a Class 10 student, police said in a statement.
Ruchika used to run a garment shop at Lajpat Nagar market along with her husband, Kuldeep Sewani. As his call to Ruchika and Krish went unanswered and the house door was locked from inside with blood stains on the gate and chairs, Kuldeep called up the police.
Acting on the information received at 9.43 p.m. on Wednesday, a police team led by a Station House Officer rushed to the spot and broke open the flat's door.
After entering the flat, the police found the bodies of Ruchika and Krish.
