Four bodies of a family were found in different parts of a house in Telangana's Wanaparthy district on Friday.
The dead bodies of a woman, her daughter, son-in-law, and granddaughter were found lying in different parts of their house, police said.
The deceased have been identified as Ajmeera Bee, her daughter Asma Begum, son-in-law Khawaja Pasha, and granddaughter Haseena, Apoorva Rao, Superintendent of Police Wanaparthy told over the phone.
She added that there was a one-foot pit in which lemon and coconut were found in the verandah area near the son-in-law and that neighbours often saw him do such suspicious activities expecting some treasure.
