Affair, doubts, Bigg Boss, then a murder plan: How Bengaluru woman killed husband and son
Accused Harini herself had reportedly called the police helpline to inform of her husband and son's death, which later turned out to be double murder case.
A 35-year-old private company employee from Kunigal and his five-year-old son were found dead at their residence in Gudde Basavapura, Bengaluru. The victims' wife, Harini, initially reported the deaths to the police, saying the family had returned from a relative's house and went to sleep. Upon waking up the next morning, she found her husband and son unresponsive.
Police later discovered that Harini had been having frequent fights with her husband over minor issues, and he had been asking for a divorce. She had been planning to live with her lover, Vinay. Harini's suspicions of her husband's infidelity led to arguments between the couple. After one such fight, Harini decided to kill her husband, while his son was watching Bigg Boss on TV.
He and his mother went to their parents' house, and Harini brought her lover home. She then allegedly killed her husband and son while they slept, to ensure no traces remained. Her lover was also arrested in connection with the murder.
