A 25-year-old woman and her lover allegedly killed her husband and five-year-old son in Chikkabanavara, Karnataka, according to police reports. The couple, who have been arrested, confessed to the crime during questioning. The victims, 35-year-old Abhinandan and his son Yaduveer, were found dead under suspicious circumstances at their home on Monday.
The woman, identified as Harini, contacted the police helpline on the same day, leading to the discovery of the bodies. Police suspect that Harini and Vinay, who had been in a relationship for around five years, switched off the CCTV cameras before committing the murders. They allegedly attacked Abhinandan with a household iron rod, causing fatal head injuries.
Harini and Vinay then allegedly smothered Yaduveer to death to prevent him from revealing their actions. Police believe the accused attempted to destroy evidence and create a false narrative surrounding the deaths.
