Three brothers allegedly committed suicide by hanging themselves at their house in Punjab's Ludhiana over a land deal, police said on Monday.

Bodies of Kuldeep Singh ( 40), Malkit Singh (38) and Davinder Singh Sunny (36) were found hanging at their house in Isher Nagar colony located on the outskirts of the city on Ludhiana-Malerkotla Road on Sunday, Dehlon's Station House Officer Malkit Kaur said.

They used to live with their family at a rented house in the area, the officer said.

Police said an eight-page handwritten suicide note was found and the role of two financiers is under scanner.

The note suggests that the brothers were paid only Rs 12-13 lakh for a plot of land worth over Rs 1 crore.

A case of abetment to suicide under section 306 of the IPC has been registered against the two financiers, said Kaur.

Further investigations in the case are underway, police said.
