All Seven Bodies Recovered in Bengaluru Family Murder Case Involving Cab DriverPreviousNext

Police have recovered all seven bodies of a family allegedly murdered by Bengaluru cab driver S Indushekhar over domestic disputes. The killings, believed to have occurred over 15 to 20 days, involved his wife, her mother, siblings, their spouses, and a child. Indushekhar reportedly drugged and bludgeoned the victims, disposing of their bodies across Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Investigations revealed his use of sedatives, chemicals to mask evidence, and involvement of his minor daughter. The case emerged after a missing-person complaint, with police continuing forensic analysis and questioning motives including marital tensions and property disputes.
