- •Akshay Kumar murdered his parents Bhimraj and Jayalakshmi, and pregnant sister Amrita, burying their bodies in the house courtyard in Kotturu, Vijayanagar.
- •The motive was Akshay's anger over his sister Amrita's inter-caste love marriage and pregnancy, which he considered an affront to family honor.
- •Akshay attempted to mislead police by creating a false trail, including fake bus tickets, changing mobile numbers, and taking photos outside Jayadeva Hospital in Bengaluru.
- •Police became suspicious due to contradictions in Akshay's statements and his mobile's call detail records (CDR) disproved his alibi.
