A family of four allegedly ended their lives in Hyderabad’s Habsiguda on Monday (March 10, 2025). A note was recovered from the spot, in which the family cited financial struggles as the reason for taking the extreme decision.
The deceased have been identified as Chandrasekhar Reddy (46), his wife Kavitha (36) and their two children who were students of Class IX and Class V.
The tragedy came to light when relatives attempted to contact the couple but received no response. “Growing suspicious, one of the relatives visited their residence in the evening. After repeated knocks on the door went unanswered, they forced the door open and found all four dead,” said OU City Inspector N. Rajender.
Preliminary investigations suggest that the parents allegedly killed their children before ending their lives at their home in Ravindra Nagar, Habsiguda on Monday afternoon (March 10, 2025).
The bodies have been shifted to Gandhi Hospital for postmortem examination. A case has been registered, and further investigation is under way.
