Asked about the motive, the DSP said: “According to preliminary investigation, Amritpal had been upset with his mother since his wife along with their two daughters left for her parental home a year ago due to a family dispute. He blamed his mother for his disturbed marital life. He said his mother loved his nephew more than his daughters. This discrimination made him murder the three.”
The bodies were sent for autopsy. A case was registered under Section 302 (murder) of the IPC.
