Police release picture of mother and two children found dead in home - as father suspected of killing them 'on the run'
Bedfordshire Police said the suspect was known to the victims and believed to have left the country as investigators treat the case as murder.
On Monday, Bedfordshire Police forced entry into a £1.3 million Great Denham home and discovered Zandile Tshuma and her two children dead; authorities identified a suspect believed to have fled the country.
Assistant Chief Constable John Murphy appealed yesterday for information about suspicious activity at Carnoustie Drive on Friday or Saturday to help establish when the suspected murders occurred.
Ndodana Mkhanyisi Tshuma, known as Mark, purchased the detached property two years ago and holds a degree in Computing Informatics from the University of Plymouth, according to reports.
A family friend described the suspected killings as "incomprehensible," while the community in Great Denham grapples with the loss of the mother and her two children.
Murphy confirmed there is no indication of broader risk to the public, though Bedfordshire Police are increasing their presence to support the forensic inquiry as the suspect remains at large.
