Karimnagar:
A pregnant woman and her two daughters died on Wednesday night in Telangana’s karimnagar city. What appeared to be a case of accidental drowning changed its course, after a police investigation revealed that it was the woman’s husband, who killed the three.
The victims were identified as 26-year-old Farhat and her daughters, Umera and Ayesha, aged 8 and 6 respectively. The family owned a swimming pool near the Warangal-Khammam National Highway, which they would rent out to visitors. It was the family’s main source of income.
On Wednesday night, Farhat and her daughters reportedly went near the water along with other family members. A few minutes later, they were found in the pool. Residents and relatives rushed to pull them out and shifted them to MGM Hospital in karimnagar, where doctors declared them dead.
Farhat’s husband, Azharuddin, told police that his wife and daughters slipped into the pool and drowned.
Woman’s Father Had Accused His Son-In-Law
Farhat’s father, Ali, had lodged a complaint with the police, alleging frequent arguments between his daughter and son-in-law over the past few days, mainly over their children and Farhat’s pregnancy. Family members claimed Azharuddin did not want another girl child and had been forcing Farhat to undergo an abortion.
“My daughter was under pressure for many days. We do not believe this was an accident,” Farhat’s father told police.
