Wife of a professor who allegedly committed suicide said her husband had killed their two minor sons before throwing himself before a train on Sunday.
A Suhasini, wife of the deceased professor A Raghvendra Guruprasad (45) who was employed with a private institute, said that "the two kids were killed cruelly".
Guruprasad, who had been staying separately from his wife after a dispute between them, killed his two sons before throwing himself in front a train near James Street railway station.
"He (professor) took my kids as per court orders that day (on October 4) at around 12.30 pm. He also asked me to come to a temple to which I refused," Suhasini told media after getting discharged from a hospital here where she was admitted after learning the news of her sons' death.
The bodies of two boys, aged 9 and 5, were extricate from a plot in Medchal yesterday and police suspected that the professor murdered them.
Suhasini, an IT employee, had filed a case of harassment against Guruprasad and the latter had been visiting his sons twice a month as per the directions of a local court.

"When the kids did not return till 4 pm (on October 5), I sent him (professor) SMSes and also called him up. I was eagerly waiting that they (my sons) would return anytime...But this is what he did," she said.

Police have already established through the cell phone call data records that Guruprasad had taken his sons to Medchal, where he owned a plot, after picking them up from Suhasini on Saturday.
"As per the postmortem report of the boys and the forensic doctors, they died of neck injuries inflicted by a knife," Malkajgiri station police inspector G Shekar Goud said.
