Bengaluru Man, Son Found Dead; Police Suspect Wife
A man and his little boy were found dead in their home in Bengaluru, India, on Monday morning.
The man was 38 years old and his son was four years old.
The police found marks on the man's body and some red stains in the hallway.
They think the stains might be blood, but they are waiting for test results.
The police believe the two may have died because they could not breathe enough air.
There were signs that they struggled before they died.
The police are suspicious of the man's wife because she kept changing what she said.
A camera inside the house, called a CCTV, was not working, so it could not show what happened.
The police are waiting for reports to find out more.
