Bangalore: Suspecting his wife's fidelity,
a 28-year-old man first killed his five-year-old son by
pushing his face into a bucket full of water and then hanged
himself at home here on Wednesday, police said.
The wife who had gone away to her relative's place, fed up
up with the daily quarrels, consumed poison there and
subsequently died in hospital, police said.
Santhosh Kumar, who was working in an automobile showroom
for the past three years, left a suicide note which said that
his wife's illicit relationship with another man had pained
him to a great extent resulting in him taking the extreme
step, police said.
