A man allegedly killed his wife, mother and later ended his life along with his two children under a moving train here in Tirupati district, a police official said on Friday. 

The deceased were identified as Mohan (37), his wife Haritha (35), mother Chandrakala (65) and two minor children, residents of Venkatakrishnapalem village here. 

"Mohan killed his wife and mother, and later died along with his two children under a moving train in Tirupati district on April 22," Puttur Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) G Ravi Kumar told Media.

"We are investigating all possible angles, including whether



Mohan had any psychological issues, as no clear motive has emerged so far," he said.

According to preliminary findings, Mohan allegedly strangled his wife using a saree in their house and later killed his mother in a similar manner. Neighbours described Mohan as a well-behaved person, and police noted that the family had recently opened a cement shop. 

After killing his mother and wife, Mohan went to his children's school and picked them up from there, citing a family emergency. Later, on April 22, around 7.15 pm near Vepagunta railway station, Mohan along with his two children were run over by the Egmore-Kacheguda train, he said.
