Following the couple’s suicide at a hotel in Jetalpur area of the city on Friday,the local police have alerted the hotel owners in the city to follow the identification process thoroughly. Police said in most cases they have found a lot of discrepancies in the entries and ID proof of the occupants.

Police said that after yesterday’s incident,officers at different police stations have been asked to get in touch with the hotel owners and instruct them to follow the rules.

“We have found that the girl had registered her wrong name in the hotel. Suspecting some foul play,some of the hotel staff had asked her name again but she had refused to do so. The matter should have been taken seriously and further cross-questioning could have prevented this incident,” said an official at J P Road police station.
