A 57-year-old woman has been accused of killing her 35-year-old son on 13th February after he allegedly repeatedly misbehaved with other women in the family in Andhra Pradesh’s Prakasam district, India.
Prakasam Superintendent of Police A.R. Damodar on Saturday, 17th February, stated that 57-year-old Lakshmi Devi murdered her 35-year-old Shyam Prasad with the assistance of her relatives and dismembered his body.
The accused are currently on the run.
“Unable to bear her son’s perverted and indecent behaviour, Devi killed her son,” Damodar told PTI.
He added that Prasad had also behaved indecently with his aunts and other relatives in Bengaluru, Khammam, and Hyderabad.
Police officials also stated that Prasad, who was unmarried, had also allegedly attempted to rape his maternal aunts in Hyderabad and Narasaraopeta.
As a result, his mother allegedly killed her son and dismembered him.
According to the police, he was murdered using an axe or a sharp weapon, and the dismembered body was disposed of in the Nakalgandi canal of Cumbum village.
The accused have been booked under Sections 302 (punishment for murder) and 201 (causing disappearance of evidence) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). (Note: Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) is not the correct code here. It’s the Indian Penal Code (IPC).)
The investigation is currently ongoing.
