In a tragic incident reported from the East Champaran district of Bihar, a husband brutally murdered his wife and three children by slitting their throats. The gruesome incident occurred in the Bavaria village within the jurisdiction of the Phatapur police station. It is reported that Idhu Miyan, the accused, carried out the heinous act on March 28 while his wife and children were asleep. After committing the murders, he fled from the scene.
