Debt, poison and one blow each: New chilling details in Jaipur quadruple murder

JAIPUR: Police investigating the Kardhani quadruple murder suspect that accused Rahul Jha (45) may have incapacitated his wife and three daughters with poison or sedatives before killing them with a single blow each to the head. “He attacked all victims with a single blow to their heads, as opposed to multiple blows,” said an officer.Froth was found around victims’ mouths, prompting investigators to examine whether a poisonous substance or sedative mixed with food was given to them. Police, however, said frothing can also occur in cases of severe blunt-force trauma to the head, and therefore it is not conclusive evidence of poisoning.Investigators are also piecing together a possible sequence of events inside the house. Police suspect Rahul may have checked on the four after they fell unconscious and realised they were still alive.
