A 21 years old man has left many people shocked after sexually assaulting his biological mother before murdering her in cold blood on November 12.
It was gathered that the 21-year-old man who is an agricultural worker from Karnataka’s Haveri district in India, claimed that his mother was having an affair with so many men. The suspect was apprehended by Police operatives on Saturday.
Shiggaon Police said that over a week before the murder, the suspect had argued with his mother and demanded that she break off her relationship with her boyfriends, but the mother disagreed.
“The woman had allegedly told her son that she wanted to be with her boyfriend. This had led to a huge argument,” the Shiggaon Police said.
On the morning of November 12, the woman and her son had gone to harvest the jowar crops in the fields. They finished work and headed home. The Police said that the woman’s son allegedly forced her to drink alcohol. He then dragged her into the fields near Gangibhavi Road, where he proceeded to rape and strangle her.
On the morning of November 13, when the victim’s sister arrived at her nephew’s residence, he is said to have informed her that his mother had already left for the fields. By Friday night, when she did not return home, the victim’s sister, her husband and daughter organised a search party to look for her. They found her body in the jowar fields near Gangibhavi Road at around 9 pm. The victim’s sister filed a complaint with the police and allegedly revealed that the mother and son were fighting constantly.
“My daughter and I began suspecting that he had something to do with her death because when we found her body, her clothes were in a disarray. We had asked him many times on Friday (November 13) about my sister’s whereabouts and he lied repeatedly.
On Saturday morning, the Shiggaon Police took the 21-year-old man into custody based on statements given by the victim’s sister and niece. Upon interrogation, the man allegedly confessed to the crime.
