The deceased were identified as G Kannabiran (39), who was running a web server business, his father Gopalasamy (68), who ran a canteen in a government hospital, and mother Bhanumathi (58). Kannbiran’s friends received a farewell message from him via WhatsApp. They rushed to their home but by then him and parents had died after consuming poison.

Gopalasamy has left behind a six-page suicide note that mainly talked about mounting loans that forced them to consider selling the house.
