Chennai, May 8 (IANS) In the shocking double murder of a couple, who returned from the US, allegedly by their driver-cum-domestic help, in Chennai, police have recovered 1,000 sovereigns of gold and 50 kg of silver from the accused.

The couple, Srikanth, 58, and his wife Anuradha, 52, had returned to their home at Chennai after ten months of their stay in California with their daughter, Sunandha.

Driver Lal Krishna, who is from Nepal and who was working with them for the past ten years, picked them up and dropped them at their home. However, when the daughter tried to contact her parents, their phones were found switched off.
