In a tragic incident that has sent shockwaves through the Railways colony in Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh, Dr. Arun Kumar, an eye specialist and medical officer with Railways, allegedly murdered his wife and two children before taking his own life. The doctor, who was reportedly battling depression, was found dead alongside his family in their residence. Colleagues discovered the gruesome scene after being unable to contact the family for two days.
Police investigations revealed a grim scenario, with a hammer, blood stains, and drug injections found at the crime scene. The doctor allegedly administered drugs to render his wife and children unconscious before delivering fatal blows to their heads. Initial attempts by the doctor to harm himself by slitting his wrists were unsuccessful, leading to his eventual suicide by hanging. The motive behind this horrifying act is yet to be fully understood.
