‘Wanted a boy’: Telangana man drowns pregnant wife, two daughters in swimming pool

NEW DELHI: “Wanted the unborn child to be a boy, but when he found out it was a girl, he tried to get an abortion, which his wife opposed. He then planned to kill his wife and took his two daughters with her to a swimming pool, throwing them into the water. We’ve registered a case and are investigating. Special teams are searching for the accused.”The chilling account, shared by a police official, outlines the alleged actions of Azharuddin in Telangana’s Hanamkonda, where he is accused of killing his pregnant wife and two young daughters. The accused remains absconding, with police teams searching for him.According to investigators, Azharuddin, who had married for love, was upset after learning that the unborn child was a girl. Police said he had earlier attempted to force an abortion, but his wife resisted. Officials believe this led to the alleged crime, in which he took his family to a swimming pool and pushed them into the water.A case has been registered, and the investigation is ongoing.
