New York: A wealthy Indian-origin couple and their teenage daughter were found dead in their USD 5 million mansion in the US state of Massachusetts in an apparent domestic violence incident, according to media reports.
The bodies of Rakesh Kamal, 57, his wife, Teena, 54, and their 18-year-old daughter, Ariana, were found in their Dover mansion, Norfolk district attorney (DA) Michael Morrissey said.
Teena and her husband, who also went by Rick, had previously run a now-defunct education systems company called EduNova.
The district attorney, who described the “terrible tragedy” as a “domestic violence situation,” said a gun was found near the husband’s body.
He declined to say whether all three family members were shot dead - and by whom, the New York Post reported. Morrissey said he was waiting for the medical examiner’s ruling, which was expected soon, before deciding whether to refer to the incident as a murder-suicide.
Morrissey added that there had been no prior police reports or domestic incidents tied to the home.
