A second year BCom student, Shardul Milind Mangale, brutally killed his 55-year-old father and grandfather. He later jumped to his death from the sixth floor of his Mulund residence on Saturday morning. Police sources said that the accused and deceased, Shardul, was in a psychiatric centre for over a year, undergoing treatment for a mental illness. 

The Mangale family—Shardul’s father Milind and his grandfather Suresh—lived at Vasant Oscar Society in Mulund West. Police sources said Shardul’s parents had separated seven years ago, and he had been living with his father and grandfather.
