Chhattisgarh, August 23: A 11 year old boy was killed by his father, after he refused to join his father as a beggar in a Chhattisgarh village.
The man after killing his son buried him in his house. Police has arrested the man.
Ashok Nishad (50) smothered his son Bhola Nishad to death on Friday at Thethwarpara village in Dongargarh, some 125 km from Raipur. Ashok was an alcoholic.
“Nishad was forcing his son for a few months to join him for begging so that he could get more cash daily for liquor,” Vishwas Chandrakar, police station chief at Dongargarh said.
Bhola, who was studying in Class 4, was the only son of Ashok Nishad.
“Nishad has confessed to his crime. He is regretful. He said his son was lovable but he murdered him under the influence of alcohol,” Chandrakar said.
