According to reports, the family lived in their flat located on the 36th floor of the 45-storey Highpoint Tower block. It is being told that all three fell from a height of about 400 feet. The investigation into how the incident happened is still ongoing. However, in the report of British newspaper Daily Mail, it has been said that this case will also be investigated from the angle of suspected murder-suicide i.e. suicide after murder.

Set up a new life in London

According to the report, Aditi and Rakesh came to London in the early 2000s. Later both of them started their own consultancy business and settled there. People who know the family said that they were under a lot of mental and emotional pressure for the last few years due to their son’s serious health problems.

Son was suffering from many serious diseases

According to friends, Sid was born in Britain. He could not speak and had many learning difficulties. He was also partially disabled and was suffering from kidney disease for a long time. People close to the family say that the constant time and stress of taking care of their son had a deep impact on the parents.

Aditi was struggling with depression

Talking to Daily Mail, family friends told that Aditi Parlakar was facing depression and other mental health related problems for a long time. A friend said, “It was a huge stress for both of them, but Aditi was especially finding it very difficult to deal with the situation.” However, another friend questioned the possibility of an alleged suicide pact, saying, “This is beyond our understanding.
