INTRIGUING AND PROFOUNDLY DISTURBING........

Inebriation and delusion can certainly have deathly or then should I say sinister and life transforming consequences as this instance proves conclusively........
 A young; promising and upcoming interior designer chose to end his life by hanging himself from the ceiling fan adorning the living room's ceiling of his modest Tijala (Kolkata) based flat hours after stabbing his father-in-law to death and grievously injuring his estranged wife.........
 Sumit Burman (the late interior designer) allegedly barged into his father-in-laws Madhyamgram (North 24 Parganas) based sprawling home at around 2:30 am or so on the fateful Friday morning in a drunken stupor and immediately picked up a bitter and recriminatory quarrel with his estranged wife's sixty odd year old pater........
 Infuriated beyond all reasonable belief and incensed beyond words; Sumit subsequently proceeded to whip out a menacing looking dagger from the innermost confines of the bag that he was carrying with him and proceeded to stab his father-in-law at least a dozen times or so thereby reducing him to a profusely bleeding bundle of humanity........
 He also did not spare both his mother-in-law and estranged wife and vented his fury on the two of them especially his better half who is currently recuperating from the numerous injuries inflicted on various parts of her anatomy (read head; neck and hands in particular) by her supposedly beloved husband when she tried to save her father from the murderous ordeal that he was subjected to..........
 Priyanka alias Bhgyashree (Sumit's better half) somehow or the other managed to muster up the strength to call the Madhyamgram cops with her mobile phone and the police sleuths whop reached the crime scene within a mere fifteen minutes or so of being summoned firstly took due cognisance of Priyanka's account of the version of macabre events that unfolded minutes earlier and rushed all three victims to the nearest medical facility where Priyanka's father was pronounced brought dead on arrival........
 Priyanka who received deep and agonising cuts on her head and hands in particular was treated at the very same hospital (she received thirty six stitches on her hands and head at last count) while her grieving and disconsolate mother who suffered superficial injuries was discharged after the requisite first aid was administered to her.........
 In the meanwhile; a second team of police sleuths from the very same police station made it's way to Sumit's afore mentioned flat at around 5 am or so on the same morning only to find the front door securely fastened from within; they somehow managed to break down the door with the aid of fellow residents of the apartments only to be confronted with the horrendous sight of Sumit's lifeless body hanging from the ceiling fan in his living room.........
On searching the premises; the police personnel recovered a suicide note in which Sumit had squarely laid the blame for the tragic events at his better half's door step and alluded to the fact that her alleged affair with a professional colleague had led to the inevitable collapse of their little over a year long marriage and Priyanka's decision to move into her parent's home some six months or so ago after a particularly acrimonious quarrel between the two..........
 On her part; Priyanka vehemently denied the allegations made by her now deceased husband and disdainfully dismissed the claims made by him about her having an affair with another gent as a figment of his fertile and frenzied imagination and instead accused him of domestic violence and mental torture......
 I for one believe that there is a yet hidden and mysterious third angle to this rather convoluted and complex imbroglio and the investigating officer will have to unravel that mysterious third dimension to really arrive at the sordid truth and thereby unmask the real culprit who is well and truly responsible for this sorry state of affairs..........
