The dead have been identified as Rony Sarker, 35, his wife Swapna Rani, 30, and their daughter 'Bhumi', 5.
Their bodies were recovered from their home at the town's Gunjabarhi area on Wednesday morning, Kotwali Police Station Sub-Inspector Rezaul Islam told bdnews24.com.
Rony's brother-in-law Mintu Kumar Mahanta said Rony called his mother on Tuesday night, telling her that Swapna was ill. He asked her to take her home but gave no details of her ailment.
He said, "We came to inquire about her health around 10am today and found the door locked. We broke it open and entered to find Rony hanging from the ceiling and the bodies of Swapna and Bhumi."
SI Islam said, "We think Rony poisoned his wife and daughter first and then committed suicide because of some conjugal discord."
But their relatives failed to shed any light on the background to the incident.
