Ten bodies were found hanging and blindfolded, while a 75-year-old woman's body was found on the floor. Two of the deceased are minors, they said.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and Delhi BJP Chief Manoj Tiwari visited the spot.

According to police, they were initially informed by a neighbour that six to seven people have committed suicide.

But upon reaching the spot, it was found that 11 members of a family had died.

The family was into plywood business and they were staying in the locality for the last 20 years, the locals said.

The police said that they were probing all angles and have not ruled out the possibility of foul play in the incident.
