Etawah, Uttar Pradesh: In a shocking turn of events, a prominent jeweler in Uttar Pradesh, Mukesh Verma, allegedly took the lives of his wife and three children before attempting suicide.
The horrifying incident came to light on Monday evening when Verma uploaded disturbing images of the deceased family members on his WhatsApp status. Alarmed by the gruesome photos, his family members discovered the bodies of his wife, Rekha, and their three children: Bhavya (22), Kavya (17), and Abhisht (12) inside their four-story residence.
Local police suspect that Verma administered a poisonous substance to his family members before attempting to end his own life by jumping in front of a moving train.
However, railway protection force personnel rescued him.
Authorities believe a family dispute motivated this heinous act.
The police are currently investigating the matter further and have sent the bodies for postmortem examination.
This tragic incident underscores the urgent need to address issues of domestic violence and mental health in India. It is crucial to provide support and resources to those who may be struggling with such issues.
