UP: BJP worker kills his 3 children leaves wife injured as he suspects her of extramarital affair
Saharanpur (UP), Mar 22 (PTI): In a case of familicide, a BJP worker here on Saturday allegedly shot dead his three children with his licensed revolver and left his wife injured as he suspected her of an extramarital affair, police said.
The incident took place in Sagatheda village when Rohilla informed police that he had shot his family, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Rohit Sajwan said.
Upon reaching the spot, Rohilla told police that he had been mentally disturbed for a while as he suspected his wife of having an extramarital affair, the SSP said.
His daughter Shraddha (12) and son Devansh (5) died on the spot, while his wife Neha (36) and son Shivansh (7) were critically injured and rushed to a hospital, the officer said.
Later, Shivansh died at the hospital during treatment and Neha was referred to a medical college for treatment, he said.
A forensic team has examined the scene, and the bodies have been sent for postmortem. An investigation is underway, Sajwan said.
Meanwhile, BJP MLA from Gangoh assembly constituency, Kirat Singh told PTI, "I don't know what triggered the incident. It is painful."
When asked whether Rohilla was holding any party post, Singh said that he was a BJP worker, but the question here is not whether the accused belongs to the BJP or any other political party, this incident is inhumane.

YouTube show row: Comedian Samay Raina records statement with Maharashtra Cyber
Mumbai, Mar 24 (PTI): Maharashtra Cyber on Monday recorded the statement of comedian Samay Raina in a case registered over objectionable remarks on his YouTube show, an official said.
Maharashtra Cyber, a cyber and information security division, is probing the case registered against podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia and others after he triggered a massive uproar with his crass remarks about parents and sex on Raina’s web show “India’s Got Latent”.
The agency had summoned Raina several times to record his statement in connection with the case, the official said.
He said Raina, who recently returned from abroad, appeared before the probe agency at its headquarters in Mhape and recorded his statement.
The comedian reached the office in the afternoon, recorded his statement for more than five hours, and left the premises at 6.45, the official said.
He said the agency had earlier recorded statements of Ranveer Allahbadia, Ashish Chanchlani, Apoorva Makhija and others.
Raina got into trouble after Allahbadia’s remarks on his now-deleted web show “India’s Got Latent” led to a massive furore in February, both online and offline, with multiple police complaints filed against the two and those involved with the show.
