In a horrifying incident from Bhagalpur, Bihar, a domestic dispute led to the tragic deaths of five family members. The chain of events unfolded when a woman constable, Nitu Kumari, allegedly murdered her two children and mother-in-law by slitting their throats. Enraged by this gruesome act, her husband, Pankaj Kumar, retaliated by killing Nitu before taking his own life by hanging.
The tragedy has left the local community in shock, and the discovery of the five bodies in the police line quarters on Tuesday morning sent waves of panic through the area. Authorities, including DIG Bhagalpur Vivekanand and SSP Anand Kumar, rushed to the scene as news of the incident broke.
According to initial reports, Nitu Kumari was a constable in the Bihar Police, stationed in Bhagalpur, while her husband Pankaj Kumar was unemployed. A suicide note found at the scene, reportedly written by Pankaj, sheds some light on the motive behind the brutal murders. In the note, Pankaj claimed that his wife had killed their two children and his mother. In a fit of rage, he then killed Nitu by bludgeoning her with a brick before stabbing her multiple times. The note also mentions suspicions of Nitu's involvement in an extramarital affair, which may have contributed to the domestic tensions.
Neighbors revealed that Nitu and Pankaj had a love marriage, but in recent days, their relationship had become increasingly strained. The couple had been embroiled in frequent arguments, leading up to this tragic incident.
The police have launched a comprehensive investigation into the case, exploring all possible angles. A forensic team has been called to examine the crime scene thoroughly, and law enforcement officials are closely scrutinizing the evidence.
DIG Vivekanand, while speaking to the media, confirmed the sequence of events as outlined in the suicide note and stated that the investigation is ongoing. "The house was found locked from the inside. When the door didn't open, neighbors broke in and discovered four bodies inside. Nitu Kumari and her two children had their throats slit, and her husband’s body was found hanging. The suicide note claims that Nitu killed their children and mother-in-law, which led Pankaj to kill her in retaliation before ending his own life."
This tragic incident has cast a pall of gloom over the area, with residents grappling to come to terms with the devastating loss. The police are expected to release more details as the investigation progresses.
