Bengaluru man arrested on suspicion of killing wife and six relatives
Police said on 9 November that 52-year-old S Indushekar is suspected of murdering his wife, her mother, two brothers, their spouses and a child in Bengaluru. Investigators are examining how the bodies were concealed and moved across state lines.
The investigation began after a missing-person report led Bengaluru police to arrest a 45-year-old cab driver, identified as Indushekar, who allegedly drugged the victims. According to police, the driver later confessed to killing the seven people over a period of 15-20 days and kept the child alive to maintain the illusion of a trip, while authorities continue to search for the remaining bodies.
