The decomposed bodies of a couple were found at a flat in PMGP Colony, Andheri (East), on Friday night. Sources from MIDC police station said the duo might have committed suicide by consuming poison. Cops have also recovered a suicide note.
The deceased have been identified as Khyati Harilal Gohil (35) and Vivek Gupta (35). Police sources said they were in a live-in relationship. While Khyati - a resident of Dhanlaxmi Society, Andheri - was a nurse at Wockhardt Hospital in Mumbai Central, Vivek, who hails from Karnal, Haryana, had a degree in mass communication.

Late on Friday night, neighbours alerted cops about a stench emanating from Khyati's flat. MIDC police immediately reached the spot, but since nobody answered the door, they called the fire brigade to break in. On entering the flat, cops found two decomposed bodies on the bed.
Cops retrieved a suicide note, written in Hindi, addressed to Khyati's father. An official from MIDC station said, "The letter highlights Khyati's last wishes. She wanted her cremation to be done alongside Vivek's."
Senior inspector Sailesh Pasalwar of MIDC police station said, "A complaint has been registered and the bodies have been sent for postmortem at Cooper Hospital. The cause of suicide will be clear after the results arrive."
