Indian press reported that Asif Mohammed, 19 years old, living in Kaliachak, Malda district of West Bengal, was recently arrested by the police for killing his entire family. The tragedy is shocking public opinion.
Police said the victims included Asif Mohammed’s 50-year-old father, 45-year-old mother, 17-year-old sister and 75-year-old grandmother.
Asif Mohammed’s brother Arif, 21 years old, was lucky to escape and hid everywhere for 4 months. It was not until the evening of June 18 that Arif safely arrived at the police station to report.
A neighbor said that after discovering that the family of four was not at home, he asked Asif Mohammed. He explained that they had moved to Kolkata and did not say anything more. Since then, Asif Mohammed no longer wants to interact with people, nor does he allow anyone to enter his house.

Neighbors were shocked by the cruelty of the 19-year-old man.
According to information from the police, the murder occurred on the evening of February 28. The reason was that Asif Mohammed had just entered school and wanted his parents to buy him a new laptop but was refused because his family situation did not allow it. Angry, Asif Mohammed put sleeping pills in his family’s drinks. When everyone lost consciousness, he tied their hands, sealed their mouths, and then drowned their father, mother, younger sister, and grandmother into the well.
Asif Mohammed’s brother escaped. Afraid of being hunted down and killed, he hid everywhere and recently filed a complaint.
After receiving the news, the police arrived at the scene and dug up the bodies of four victims from under the floor of the altar in the house. Police also found hundreds of thousands of rupees and many electronic devices, including televisions, phones, CCTV cameras and laptops.
The bodies were sent to Malda Medical College for post-mortem. Asif Mohammed was arrested by the police for murder and concealment of the body. Police are still trying to investigate to clarify some details. Many doubt that a 19-year-old man could not have murdered his entire family alone so easily.
