A horrific crime has shaken Maharashtra’s Washim district after a man allegedly killed his two-year-old twin daughters in a fit of rage following an argument with his wife — and then calmly surrendered at a police station.

According to officials, the accused, identified as Rahul Chavan, was travelling with his wife and their two daughters when a heated quarrel broke out between the couple. Enraged, Chavan’s wife reportedly decided to return to her parents’ home, leaving him alone with the children.

Consumed by anger, Chavan drove to a forested stretch in Ancharwadi village of Buldhana district, where he allegedly committed the unthinkable — slitting the throats of his two little girls.

Moments later, the man went straight to the Washim police station, where he confessed to the killings. Acting swiftly, a police team rushed to the spot and recovered the bodies of the children.

Investigators said that the preliminary examination suggested the bodies were partially burnt, raising suspicions that Chavan may have tried to destroy evidence by setting them on fire after the murders. However, officials have yet to confirm this aspect of the case.

A forensic analysis and post-mortem are underway to determine the exact cause of death and verify whether the girls were burnt after being killed.

Senior police officials, including Deputy Superintendent of Police (DySP) Manisha Kadam, visited the scene as part of the initial inquiry. The investigation team conducted an on-site inspection, collected forensic samples, and documented evidence from the area.
