“The hotel staff who went to check on the woman found both of them unconscious inside the room. Odda, they later found, was already dead,” said an investigating police officer.

“Marry was rushed to the Lady Hardinge Hospital where his condition was described as critical.”
The police said Marry might have also collapsed due to the same reason. The body of Odda has been sent for an autopsy.
