In a tragic and disturbing incident, a 31-year-old software professional from Andhra Pradesh, identified as Veerarjuna Vijay, allegedly took the lives of his wife and two young daughters before committing suicide in Bengaluru. The shocking discovery was made on Thursday at the Sai Garden Apartments in Seegehalli, where the family resided.
The victims have been identified as his wife Hemavathi, 29, and their two daughters – one aged one and a half years, and the other just eight months old.
The Kadugodi police station was alerted when concerned neighbours reported a foul smell emanating from the techie’s apartment.
Upon entering the residence, law enforcement authorities discovered the bodies of the entire family. Preliminary investigations have revealed that the heart-wrenching incident occurred on July 31.
While the exact motive behind this horrific crime is yet tobe ascertained, authorities are actively investigating the circumstances that led to the devastating outcome. Veerarjuna Vijay and Hemavathi had been married for six years, and friends, relatives, and colleagues are equally stunned and bewildered by this tragic turn of events.
A team of experts from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) has been deployed to assist in the investigation, with the hope that it will shed light on the underlying factors that may have contributed to this distressing incident. Further details are yet to emerge as the investigation continues.
