Woman, Two Children Found Dead in Swimming Pool; Father Alleges Husband's Murder Plot
In a tragic incident that has shocked the community, a woman and her two young daughters were found dead in a swimming pool at a private property on the outskirts of Punnole village in Hanamkonda district on Thursday morning. The victims have been identified as Farhana, aged 26, and her daughters Umera, 9, and Ayesha, 5, all residents of Punnole village.
Father Alleges Husband's Involvement and Gender Bias
The deceased woman's father, Sk Ali, has made serious allegations against his son-in-law, Md Azharuddin. According to Sk Ali, Azharuddin murdered his wife and two children by throwing them into the pool and then attempted to pass it off as an accident. Sk Ali further claimed that Farhana was five months pregnant, and her husband suspected that the unborn child was also a girl, which allegedly fueled the violence.
Sk Ali detailed a history of harassment, stating that Farhana had previously undergone two abortions and faced continued mistreatment from her husband. He alleged that this pattern of abuse culminated in the horrific incident.
Events Leading to the Tragedy
On Wednesday night, Azharuddin reportedly took Farhana and their two children to his land in a private layout on the village outskirts. There, they celebrated one of the children's birthdays and had dinner together. The property includes a swimming pool, where Sk Ali alleges Azharuddin killed his wife and daughters.
Early on Thursday morning, Azharuddin informed family members about the deaths, portraying them as accidental drowning. When relatives rushed to the spot, they discovered the three bodies in the pool, leading to immediate suspicion and the father's allegations.
Police Response and Investigation
Parwathagiri police have registered a case and launched a thorough investigation into the incident. Police teams are actively searching for the accused, Md Azharuddin, who is currently at large. Authorities are examining the scene, collecting evidence, and interviewing witnesses to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the deaths.
The case has drawn significant attention due to the serious nature of the allegations, including potential gender-based violence and domestic abuse. The community is awaiting further updates as the investigation progresses to bring justice for the victims.
