Chhattisgarh couple found hacked to death at home; son is prime suspect: Police

A Chhattisgarh couple in their fifties was discovered murdered at their home by their younger son, police announced on Monday. The victims, identified as Hiradhar Yadav, 55, and his wife Gulabi Yadav, 52, were found dead and bundled into two sacks. The grisly discovery was made by their son Mohan, who resides separately nearby. Jadu Yadav, the elder son who lived with the couple, is now considered a prime suspect in the cold-blooded killing.
