  • Indian Couple Jumps Off High-Rise After Allegedly Throwing Child Down
A couple on Wednesday allegedly threw down their four-year-old son and then jumped off the 12th floor of a building in Sarthana area, police said.
 
Vijaybhai Vaghasia, 32, his wife Rekha Vaghasia, 30, and son Veer Vaghasia, 4, died in the incident.
