The victims were identified as Navin Chandra Bhat, 60, a retired Air Force Captain, and his wife Shyamala Bhat, 55, a doctor.
According to police, the accused Rohan Bhat stabbed his parents multiple times with a knife, leading to their death. They were taken to Manipal Hospital for treatment, but they succumbed to their injuries.
During interrogation, Rohan revealed that he had been facing constant criticism and humiliation from his parents, who would often scold him in front of others. He also alleged that his mother would mix sleeping pills in his milk.
