Bengaluru Family of Four Found Dead in Suspected Murder-Suicide

Police believe parents poisoned their children before taking their own lives, citing emotional stress and a child's health condition as possible factors.

The deceased include Anup Kumar (38), his wife Rakhi (35), their 5-year-old daughter Anupriya, and 2-year-old son Priyansh, originally from Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh.
The family was discovered in their rented home in Bengaluru's RMV 2nd Stage after their house help alerted neighbors and police when no one responded at the door.
Initial investigations suggest the parents poisoned their children before dying by suicide, though no suicide note has been found at the scene.
Police are exploring emotional stress linked to the elder child's special needs as a potential contributing factor, according to statements from the family's house help.
The family appeared to be preparing for a trip to Pondicherry the day before their deaths, adding to the mystery surrounding the incident.
