Mandya: A woman and four children were found stabbed to death at home in Krishnarajasagar (KRS) here on Sunday morning.
Neighbors warned the police when no one answered the door.
Five victims were Lakshmi, a 30-year-old housewife and wife of plastic goods, her children Raju, 10, Komal, 7, and Kunal, 4, and her nephew, Govinda, 8.
They were migrants from Rajasthan.
Police said everything was stabbed repeatedly and each found lying in a pool of blood.
The killers seem to take some valuable items from home, but the police want to investigate whether this murder to get or if there is another motive.
No one has been captured.
Lakshmi’s husband was not at home on Saturday night.
The police questioned the neighbors.
The police were confused about how no neighbors heard the voice when the fifth was killed.
“We have not confirmed this as a murder to get.
Because children are killed in a cruel way, there may be a stronger motive and we will explore the truth and catch the culprit.
We must ensure the waterproof case, so the culprit gets a death sentence,” said A police officer.
The incident surprised the population of KRS.
Tears choked, the woman in the neighborhood urged police officers to arrest the perpetrators.
