Teen Detained for Killing Brother, Sister-in-Law, and Nephew in GorakhpurPreviousNext

A 16-year-old boy in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh, allegedly killed his elder brother Amit Gupta, sister-in-law Ranjana, and their three-year-old son Reyansh while they were asleep around 3 am in their home. The accused was detained with a blood-stained weapon, and police have registered a case based on the victims' father's complaint. Preliminary investigations suggest a possible family dispute related to a family-run shop as a motive. The bodies have been sent for post-mortem, and the investigation is ongoing.
