The incident took place on Friday night.

“A man named Pradeep has murdered his wife and two daughters aged five and seven in Delhi’s Karawal Nagar area. The accused is absconding,” said Delhi Police.

According to NDTV report, long-standing arguments with his 28-year-old wife, Jayshree, may have been the motive behind the killings.

“We got to know about the incident today morning at 6 am. When we opened the door, we saw the mother and two daughters on their bed. The husband and wife used to fight regularly,” a neighbour said, reported NDTV.

However, the exact behind the murders is being probed.

The police have registered a case against Pradeep and launched a manhunt to track him down.

The bodies of the three victims have been sent for post-mortem at the GTB Hospital in Delhi.
