Uri, Nov 29: A woman and her two minor daughters died purportedly due to asphyxiation in Uri area of north Kashmir’s Baramulla district overnight, officials said on Sunday.

They said that the trio—Shameema Begum (43) wife of Abdul Majeed Ganie and their daughters— Nighat Bano (13) and Tabasum Bano (9)—were found dead at their house in Lari Boniyar.

SSP Baramulla while confirming the incident said that a case has been registered and investigations are underway to ascertain the cause of the death. “Apparently the deaths have occurred owing to suffocation due to Bukhari (wood burning heater/stove) but further investigations are underway,” the police officer added.
