<p>A 27-year-old man allegedly killed his parents at their Kodigehalli house in north Bengaluru on Monday night, locked the house from outside and fled. Neighbours, who had heard the screams, assumed it was just another fight the man had with his parents, and kept away.

Kodigehalli police said Sharath was caught on CCTV cameras in the vicinity walking on the road between 8.23 and 8.25 pm on Monday.</p>.<p><strong>Also Read | <a href="https://www.deccanherald.com/city/bengaluru-crime/bengaluru-woman-sets-40-year-old-alcoholic-son-on-fire-1238069.html">Bengaluru woman sets 40-year-old alcoholic son on fire</a></strong></p>.<p>The family hailed from Talapady near Ullal in Dakshina Kannada district, and lived in a densely populated area just off the 1st Main Road in Park View Layout. </p>.<p>The murder came to light on Tuesday morning when the couple's elder son Sajith, who lived at Thindlu close by, asked the neighbours to check on his parents as they were not responding to his calls.
