Three sisters found dead

 New Delhi: Three sisters were found dead under mysterious circumstances in east Delhi's Mandawali area, police said on Wednesday.

They were aged two, four and eight and were declared brought dead by a hospital on Tuesday. The girls were brought there by their mother and a neighbour at around 1 pm, and the hospital authorities informed police about their deaths.
 
A board of doctors would conduct a re-examination of the bodies at the GTB hospital, Pankaj Singh, Deputy Commissioner of Police (east), said. A forensic team inspected the place where the family was staying and found some medicine bottles and pills, police said. 

The girls' father, who worked as a casual labourer, is missing since Tuesday. No injury marks were found on the bodies, they said, adding that the re-examination would help ascertain whether they were poisoned. 

Initially, it seemed to be a case of natural death but with the medicine bottles being recovered, police want to ensure that there was no foul play in the death of the girls.
