The accused has been identified as Asad. The incident occurred after he returned home and argued with the victims. During the altercation, he allegedly pulled out a large knife and attacked Karan several times.

On witnessing the attack, Rakesh intervened in an attempt to save his son and was also stabbed repeatedly. The accused then fled the scene.

Upon receiving the information, the police reached the spot and spotted the father and son lying in a pool of blood. They were rushed to the Max Hospital, where doctors declared them dead upon arrival.

The police is scanning the CCTV footage and based on it, they traced Asad’s escape route and subsequently caught him.
