According to police officials, Solanki was found hanging in his home, while his sons — Krishiv (8) and Karnish (2) — were discovered dead on a bed nearby. Investigators suspect he first administered poison to the children before taking his own life.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone 4) Vijay Singh Gurjar stated, “The incident occurred at the District Panchayat Quarters in Athwalines. In the afternoon, Solanki’s wife, Falguni, had been trying to reach him. As he did not respond, she rushed home and found the house locked from the inside. She then called her brother and Solanki’s brother, and the police were informed.

Rat Poison Found as Suicide Evidence

On gaining entry, police found both children dead on a bed while Solanki was hanging from a fan. Rat poison was found at the spot. It seems that both children were poisoned first, after which Solanki died by suicide.”

Alpesh was employed at Mary Matha Public School in Pandesara, and Falguni worked as a clerk with the Surat District Panchayat. Originally from Chithoda village in Sabarkantha, Alpesh had been living in Surat with his family.

At the crime scene, authorities recovered a soft drink bottle and an empty packet believed to have contained poison. No suicide note was initially found, but officials mentioned that they are examining Solanki’s mobile phone and will record statements from family and friends to understand the cause behind the drastic act.

The police are treating the case as a suspected double murder followed by suicide, with further investigation underway.
