Man kills wife, mother; ends life with two children in Tirupati
Tirupati (Andhra Pradesh) (PTI): A man allegedly killed his wife, mother and later ended his life along with his two children under a moving train here in Tirupati district, a police official said on Friday.
The deceased were identified as Mohan (37), his wife Haritha (35), mother Chandrakala (65) and two minor children, residents of Venkatakrishnapalem village here.
"Mohan killed his wife and mother, and later died along with his two children under a moving train in Tirupati district on April 22," Puttur Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) G Ravi Kumar told PTI.
"We are investigating all possible angles, including whether Mohan had any psychological issues, as no clear motive has emerged so far," he said.
According to preliminary findings, Mohan allegedly strangled his wife using a saree in their house and later killed his mother in a similar manner.
Neighbours described Mohan as a well-behaved person, and police noted that the family had recently opened a cement shop.
After killing his mother and wife, Mohan went to his children's school and picked them up from there, citing a family emergency. Later, on April 22, around 7.15 pm near Vepagunta railway station, Mohan along with his two children were run over by the Egmore-Kacheguda train, he said.
Railway authorities alerted the police after the loco pilot, KVS Babu, informed the station master about the incident, following which local police reached the spot and confirmed the deaths.
Police said no immediate reason has been established behind the incident and further investigation is underway to ascertain the sequence of events.
Meanwhile, police registered a case under Section 103(1) of the BNS in connection with the killing of two women, while the deaths near the railway track are being probed separately by the Government Railway Police (GRP).

Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha to quit AAP, join BJP
New Delhi: Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha has announced that he would be quitting the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and soon join the Bharatiya Janata Party.
His announcement, which was made before reporters on Friday, comes shortly after a clash with his party leaders who removed him the position of deputy leader in the Upper House of the Parliament.
Chadha, who addressed a press conference with Sandeep Pathak and Ashok Mittal, added that two-thirds of AAP Rajya Sabha MPs had decided to join the BJP invoking constitutional provisions.
Chaddha said that the AAP, which he had nurtured with his ‘blood and sweat’ and had given 15 years of his youth to, had strayed from its founding principles.
Pathak and Mittal too told reporters that they would be quitting the AAP and move to the BJP.
