Key to Noida sisters’ house goes missing
Noida: The horror case of the two starving sisters, who were rescued yesterday in a very bad shape from their apartment, took a tragic turn on Wednesday when one of them died at a hospital here while the condition of the other deteriorated.
Authorities, meanwhile, ordered a magisterial probe into the circumstances that led to the shocking case of self- deprivation by the sisters Anuradha and her sister Sonali, both in their 40s and holding doctorate degrees, who were self-confined for six months in their house.
They were found in a severely malnourished and dehydrated state by police and neighbours in their Sector 29 apartment when they were rescued.
"Anuradha's mouth was bleeding. She was shifted to the ICU but in spite of all efforts we were not able to resuscitate here. And, she breathed her last at 8:05 AM," Dr Amit, Chief Medical Officer of Kailash Hospital where the sisters were admitted, said.
The immediate cause of the death of Anuradha (43) was cardiac arrest. "Due to malnutrition there was a multi-organ failure. This led to the cardiac arrest. A post-mortem will be conducted," VV Joshi, hospital spokesperson, said.
Doctors at Kailash Hospital said Sonali has been shifted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU) as her condition has worsened. "Her blood pressure has fallen. She is diagnosed with malnutrition, dehydration and depression," they said.
The District Magistrate has asked City Magistrate Sanjay Chauhan to look into the circumstances of their self-confinement and starvation.
"I have been asked to conduct a magisterial enquiry into the unnatural death of Anuradha. I will conduct the inquiry to know the circumstances under which they had confined themselves and the possible reasons and will submit the report within 45 days," Chauhan told agency.
Disturbed by the incident, the National Commission for Women has ordered an enquiry and sought a report from Noida authorities and the police.
Superintendent of Police (Noida City) Anant Dev said police have not registered a case as they feel that no offence has been made out under the IPC. He said the police acted promptly to rescue the women after it was informed about them. "As soon as we came to know about it, we took action," he said.
Vipin Behl, the brother of the two women who was not living with them for the past some years, said he had gone to Bangalore and later shifted to Gurgaon where he is currently working. Behl said he had transferred the parental property to the sisters as well as some fixed deposits.
"I had shifted to Bangalore and later came back to Gurgaon where I am working now. I had transferred the property in their names. I have also transferred some fixed deposits in their names," he said, adding he will take care of his surviving sister and bear all expenses for her treatment.
Anuradha and Sonali were apparently disturbed since their father and mother passed away some years back and their younger brother left them. In the interim period, their pet dog also died after which they got into a state of depression.
Police had broken into the apartment after being informed by neighbours and an NGO about the women who had not come out of their home for the past several months.
Initially neighbours thought it was best to leave them alone, thinking that they need time to come to terms with the loss. In the interim their pet dog also died, pushing them farther from the society.
But when the girls completely stopped coming out of their home, the RWA sought help from the police.
A member of the Sector 59 Residents Welfare Association said, "The two sisters were upset after their parents died some years ago. They had differences with their younger brother who lives separately. Their pet dog, who they were very fond of, died about six months back after which they became even more upset."

Flat No 326 in Noida’s Sector-29, where the two Behl sisters locked themselves up, refuses to open its doors to the outside world. The government team investigating the case found themselves face-to-face with a dead end, quite literally, when the house key mysteriously disappeared on Friday.
City magistrate Sanjay Chauhan told Newsline, “I wanted to start with a proper tour of the house where the sisters had confined themselves. But unfortunately, we could not do that today since the key to the house could not be found.”
According to him, neighbours and RWA representatives had told the police that Sonali, the younger of the two sisters, had taken the keys with her when she was taken to Kailash Hospital. “But, according to Sonali’s brother Vipin, Sonali insists she never took the keys,” Chauhan said.
Eyewitnesses say that since they never saw Sonali lock the door, the neighbours may have taken the key. Usha Thakur, the social worker who called the police to rescue the two sisters, maintains that she never saw Sonali take it. “Sonali just picked up a file and walked out of the house, into the ambulance. When police officers said the door should be locked, the neighbours asked a security guard to go upstairs and do it. The guard or one of the neighbours must have locked the door,” said Thakur.
This Story of these two Sister is very painful & horror. and it shows hows out metro city level goes up and we lost the feelings and humanity that neighbours not even see the next door of their house thats what is happening over there.

This is really a thrilling news for all indians. I thank that NGO who came forward for this operation, though one victim could not be saved. This case should go to supreme court and immediate punishment should be given for faulters.
