A man in Chhindwara, MP killed eight family members before taking his own life.

In a small village called Bodal Kachhar in Madhya Pradesh's Chhindwara district, a tragic incident occurred in the early hours of Wednesday. A man, who was said to be struggling with mental health issues, brutally killed eight members of his joint family with an axe before taking his own life by hanging himself.

The man, Dinesh Sariyam, had recently gotten married on May 21. According to Superintendent of Police Manish Khatri, he was known to be "mentally disturbed". The reason behind his heinous act is still unknown and is currently being investigated.

At around 2:30am, Dinesh attacked his wife, mother, sister, brother, his brother's wife, and three young children. He also tried to harm his nephew, but the young boy was able to escape. The news of the gruesome incident spread quickly, and a woman from the village raised an alarm. The police arrived at the scene and began searching for the perpetrator. However, they soon discovered that Dinesh had taken his own life by hanging himself from a tree.

The bodies of the victims were sent for an autopsy, and the injured nephew was taken to a private hospital for treatment. The Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Mohan Yadav, expressed deep sorrow over the tragedy and instructed Minister Sampatia Uikey to visit the village and offer support to the grieving family.

Preliminary investigation suggests that Dinesh was suffering from mental instability, according to officials. However, a thorough investigation is still ongoing, as stated by the SP. The community is in shock and mourning over the loss of so many lives in such a tragic manner. Our hearts go out to the family and loved ones of the victims during this difficult time.
