Doctor ends life after killing wife, in-laws and baby

INDORE: In a horrific incident, a young radiologist allegedly hanged himself to death after hacking to death his gynecologist wife and in-laws, besides strangulating his six-month-old daughter at a flat in New Palasia locality here on Sunday.
Estranged relations between the doctor couple Dr Rohit Dwivedi and Dr Priyanka (as indicated by a 13-page suicide note) is likely to have led to the gruesome murders at the fourth-floor rented flat of the multi-story Bakhatgarh Tower residential apartments.
According to SP (Indore East) OP Tripathi, the incident came to light at around 2.30 pm, after Rohit's father Dr GP Dwivedi, a professor with a private medical college in Bhopal, came to meet his son and daughter-in-law Priyanka. Dwivedi had come to Indore after getting no response despite repeated calls on his son's mobile phone.
A team of Tukoganj police rushed to his son's flat and found Dr Priyanka (30), her parents PC Pandey, 62, and Savitri Pandey, 60, lying dead in pool of blood in one of the rooms of the two-bedroom flat, while the medico-couple's six-month-old daughter Suhi was lying dead on bed in the other bed room.
The police team later found Dr Rohit Dwivedi, himself, hanging through a ceiling fan inside the kitchen, while a 13-page suicide note was found kept on an LPG gas cylinder in the kitchen, along with a few bank cheques signed by the young radiologist in favour of his father Dr GP Dwivedi.
Dr Priyanka was an assistant professor at department of gyanecology, Mahatma Gandhi Medical College (MGMC) but was not going to work for more than six months, even after expiry of her maternity leave.
According to deputy inspector general of police (DIG Indore) Rakesh Gupta preliminary investigations suggest that prolonged tension between the medico couple could be the reason behind the extreme step.
While, it's clear that Dr Rohit had mercilessly killed his wife and in-laws, it's also suspected that he might have killed his daughter also.
Among the three hacked to death by the doctor, his father-in-law PC Pandey (a retired bank employee) hailing from Patel Nagar, Patna was killed most brutally as his intestines were belching out of stomach area. "The blood stained sharp-edged surgical tools used to commit the brutal killings has also been recovered from the spot," SP (Indore East) OP Tripathi said.
The post-mortem of all five bodies were being conducted at the time of filling this report.
According to police sources, Dr Rohit (who worked at a medical clinic in Rajendra Nagar-Indore was not having a good relation with his wife Dr Priyanka and their parents had come to Indore apparently to solve the matter.
The contents of the suicide note purportedly written by Dr Rohit clearly suggest that he was not happy with wife and particularly blamed his in-laws for all problems. The note also pointed towards some major spat that took place on Saturday night between the radiologist and his wife and in-laws, which could have triggered the horrific episode.
