Before the Maharashtra mountain accident, the mother had posted: "A relationship like this should be broken off," and claimed that her son jumped from a hill for an iPhone.

In Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, three members of the same family died on Friday after falling into a 250-foot deep gorge. The deceased include Murlidhar Chandgude (48 years), Sangeeta Chandgude (42 years), and their son Kunal Chandgude (18 years). According to police, the son had bought an iPhone but was unable to pay its EMI. He was demanding money from his family to pay the EMI. This led to a dispute between him and his father.
