Another triple murder rocks the city. A dental technician throttled his wife and two children at his home in the early hours of Monday at Meerpet.
After killing his 35year-old wife Jyoti, son Abhitej, 6, and daughter Sahasra, 4, Harinder Goud told his neighbours in the colony what he had done and then walked to the police station and told the police he had murdered his wife. He said he was suffering from depression because of loss in business.
Harinder owned a unit making dental clips in Malakpet. Jyoti was a homemaker and both children studied in a private school. The family lived in Sumitra enclave in Jillelaguda village.
Harender closed his loss making business two years ago and started making clips at home on order. But the financial situation of the family continued to deteriorate and they had to struggle to meet their daily needs. Jyoti’s parents started helping out by providing groceries and sometimes cash. They even paid the school fees of both the kids.
According to what Harinder told the police, his wife did not like this and began pestering him to earn more. She would often talk to him in a humiliating manner about the support from her family.
The issue became the cause of frequent quarrels between the couple in the last few months. On Sunday there was another quarrel late at night, but he managed to pacify her and they went to sleep. But Harinder said he could not sleep and around 3.30 am, he woke up Jyoti, took her into the kitchen, beat her and throttled her. After making sure that she was dead he walked back into the bedroom and smothered both the children with a pillow.
A murder case has been registered and police started an investigation.
