The victims were likely hacked to death with a kitchen chopper by more than one attacker. However, the post-mortem reports are awaited.
The husband and his son's tutor are being questioned in the case. The tutor had come to the house around 5 pm and left after he found the door shut and the lights switched off.
The neighbours said they did not hear or see anything suspicious.
The police suspect the murderer was known to the woman and she might have opened the door for him, according to sources.
The police are also checking call record details of those involved.
