Jaipur man kills wife, three daughters with cement block; police launch search
A man in Jaipur, India allegedly killed his wife and three daughters using a cement block following a family dispute, according to police reports. Geeta Jha, a 40-year-old woman, and her daughters Nandini, Radhika, and Gauri, aged between 15 and 22, were found dead in separate rooms of their home in Govind Vatika, under the jurisdiction of Kardhani police station.
The women suffered head and facial injuries, while the husband, Rahul Jha, has been considered the prime suspect. He is believed to have fled the scene after the incident and has since been rendered unreachable due to a switched-off phone. Police have formed teams to locate him, and a cement block similar to the one used in the killings was discovered at the scene.
Forensic teams and local authorities were alerted by concerned residents, who then reached the location to aid in the investigation. Further details are awaited as the investigation proceeds.
