The victims were reportedly living at the residence with their wife, Harini, and son.\n\nHarini contacted the police helpline on Monday morning, stating that the family had gone to a relative's house and returned home on Sunday evening. Upon hearing the call, police arrived at the house and found the father and son unresponsive. Their bodies were taken into custody and sent for postmortem examination.\n\nThere were no significant external injuries on the bodies, but minor injury marks were observed. The cause of death will be determined after the postmortem reports are received. Police have seized the mobile phones of both victims and are examining their call records, messages, and other digital evidence to establish the sequence of events leading to their deaths.\n\nAbhinandan's mother has filed a complaint alleging that her son and grandson were murdered, leading police to register a murder case. The investigation is ongoing as the police are scrutinizing suspicious aspects at the residence, the state of the CCTV footage, and whether any individual entered or exited the house around the time of the deaths.",
