Deepak Shirode, his sons Prasad (26) and Rakesh (23) were found hanging in three separate rooms of their home in Radhakrishna Nagar in the city's Satpur suburb in the afternoon, he said.
"Other members of the household had gone out at the time. When they returned at around 4pm, the main door was found locked from inside. They broke open the door with the help of neighbours," he said.
