A Gujarat forest official has been arrested for murdering his wife and two children, smothering them with a pillow before burying their bodies in pre-dug pits near his residence. The crime stemmed from a domestic dispute over living arrangements, with the wife wanting the family to live together in Bhavnagar rather than separately in Surat with in-laws. Police uncovered the crime after noticing inconsistencies in the officer's statements and his unusual lack of concern for his "missing" family members.
