Fourteen-year-old twin brothers were killed Saturday night when they fell from the 25th floor of their apartment building in Ghaziabad, said police.
It is not clear how the children fell from the 25th floor.
According to police, the father of the children was away in Mumbai on official tour. The mother and the sister of the twins were at home, said the cops.
The incident, which took place well after midnight on Saturday, was reported from an apartment complex in Siddharth Vihar.
