While cops await post-mortem reports, resident of building says geyser could have caused deaths

Deepak and Rina Shah
A couple was found dead in mysterious circumstances, in the bathroom of their flat in a Ghatkopar high-rise on Wednesday. The Pant Nagar police said Deepak, 42, and Rina Shah, 39, were found with the shower running. While the post-mortems will be done on Thursday, a resident of the housing society said the geyser could have caused the deaths. The Pant Nagar police have filed an Accidental Death Report (ADR) in the case.
The incident came to light when on Wednesday morning, a maid working for the Shahs, who stayed in G wing in flat number 501, arrived for work. She rang the door bell several times, but nobody answered the door. The maid then called Deepak’s mother who gave the mobile phone number of a relative living nearby. The police said the relative arrived and opened the door with a spare key.
