Trichy, May 28: An 18-year-old boy was stabbed to death by his father who was under the influence of alcohol, after a petty quarrel with the boy's mother, on Saturday night in Edamalaipatti Pudur, Trichy. The police arrested and remanded the father to judicial custody on Sunday.

S Muralitharan, a resident of Rajiv Gandhi Nagar, works as an office superintendent in the Railway Protection Force (RPF), Trichy and his wife M Geetha, works as a pharmacist in the ESI hospital in Trichy. The couple had two children M Vinith (18), a first year engineering student and M Vishal, studying in the eighth standard.

On Saturday night, Muralitharan returned home in an inebriated state as usual and picked a quarrel with his wife over a trivial issue. However, the older son Vinith, who was preparing for his exam, intervened and tried to solve the problem between his parents. But this incurred his father's anger and Muralitharan stabbed Vinith with a kitchen knife.

Muralitharan proceeded to dash Vinith against a wall and the boy collapsed in a pool of blood in the presence of his mother Geetha. Based on the information, the 108 ambulance rushed to the spot but declared him dead. The E Pudhur police have arrested Muralitharan and sent him to the Trichy central prison. The son's body has been sent for post-mortem.

Mumbai, Feb 11: A 65-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband over debt and illness in suburban Powai here, police said on Tuesday.

The incident came to light when Sheela Ajit Lad was found dead by her neighbours at Sukh Shanti Co-operative Society at around 9.30 pm on Monday, an official said.

The victim was allegedly killed by her husband Ajit Lad, who hit her on the head with a heavy object, slit her wrists and strangled her to death, he said.

The accused absconded at around 7.30 pm, leaving a note at the crime scene, saying he was going to commit suicide and had killed his wife because he was heavily in debt and she was suffering from an ailment, the official said.

The childless couple lived alone in the apartment, he added.

"On the basis of the note, we have registered a case of murder against Ajit Lad and have launched a manhunt for him. We have not traced him or found his body as he had mentioned suicide in the note," deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Zone X Ankit Goyal said.
