A father who strangled his wife and their two young children and then held a knife to his own throat before being Tasered by police has been jailed for life.

Saju Chelavalel, 52, has been locked up for at least 40 years after killing NHS nurse Anju Asok while he was drunk last December, in the mistaken belief that she had been unfaithful to him.

Chelavalel had more than four hours “to reflect on whether to kill his children” before using a dressing gown cord to kill six-year-old son Jeeva Saju and their daughter Janvi Saju, aged four, Northampton Crown Court was told.

Ms Asok, 35, who worked at Kettering General Hospital, was found on the floor of a bedroom at the flat. The children’s bodies were found next to each other on a double bed in a different room.
