Monday, August 24, 2026 -A teenage boy and his parents fell to their d£aths after an argument over his new cell phone.
At around 10 a.m. local time on Friday, Aug. 21, Kunal Chandgude went up
Khawadya Hill in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, India, after arguing with his
parents over a payment for a new cell phone he purchased, The Indian
Expres reported, citing a police report.
His father, Murlidhar, 48, and mother Sangita followed him as he
threatened to jump while standing on the edge of a cliff, according to the
outlet.
Police and fire personnel arrived at the scene and tried for three hours
to convince the teenager to return home with his parents, according to The
Indian Express.
At around 1 p.m., as Murlidhar moved closer to his son to try to bring him
away from the edge, Kunal allegedly jumped to his de@th.
His father then fell to his d£ath while trying to save him.
The mother quickly followed, jumping to her de@th after seeing her husband
and son fall, The Indian Express reported.
The bodies were recovered by police and sent for post-mortem
examination.
Witness Sanjay Jadhav told NDTV, “The parents and others tried very hard
to make him understand, but he didn’t listen and kept standing on the edge of
the hill. Police officials were also there.”
“The mother kept pleading with him not to jump,” he recalled.
Kunal’s parents were reportedly living separately after their eldest son
di£d from an illness six years prior, according to NDTV.
The day before the tragic incident, Sangita posted a video on YouTube
saying there is “no point in doing anything for a person who does not value
love,” per NDTV.
She had over 30,000 subscribers and regularly posted mini-vlogs featuring her
son.
