The county coroner said all four of them had died from gunshot wounds.

West Whiteland Police Detective Scott Pezick said it’s unclear who was behind the murders. 

Law enforcement sources told that Mr Kulkarni had bought a gun two weeks prior to their bodies being discovered.

Arti’s family went over to the home on Sunday 24th January after becoming concerned because they hadn't heard from her in days.

“It was obvious, she wanted to meet, but he didn’t let us.” Adya said.

“I would ask Arti if everything is OK, and she would never say anything.’’

Adya said that his sister would refuse to give them even an ‘’inkling that things weren’t perfect’’ in her marriage.

Adya described his sister as the “most devoted wife, and an even more devoted mother, sister and daughter”.

“They definitely did not deserve this,” he told the paper.

Kulkarni worked as a software analyst at Education Management Systems, according to his LinkedIn profile.

His wife was also thought to be in in the same field, working as an application developer, most recently for the University of Pennsylvania.
