What It Means For You
- If you live in Chikkabanavara or followed the first police alert, the case is now treated as a double murder, not a medical collapse at home.
- Anyone who saw the 112 call reports can note Harini herself alerted police, after which officers listed CCTV being off and phone data being erased.
- If you are a relative seeking facts, the two accused have each named the other in the child's death, and postmortem findings are still awaited.
What's Happening
- Police arrested Harini on 17 August and Vinay Kumar from Harohalli the next day.
- Both were sent to five days of police custody.
- Bodies were sent for postmortem to fix the cause of death.
What Officers Say They Found Inside The House
- There were no stab wounds. Police say both victims were smothered, and that the father's body was placed over the child.
- Washed clothes with blood marks were found drying, and a cloth was recovered from the bathroom area, police said.
- Family members told police Abhinandan owned a multi-storey house and land, which investigators are checking as part of motive.
