Bengaluru, Aug 29: In a shocking incident, a youth gouged out his father’s eye with a set of car keys after a clash over a property dispute yesterday in the city.

The accused Abhishek Chethan (35) was arrested by the police while his father S S Parameshwar was admitted a hospital after the coldblooded attack.

According to police the son had been pressuring his father to sign over a property in JP Nagar to him. “The accused entered his father’s house at Shakambari Nagar on Tuesday morning while he was performing a ceremony to mark one month of his wife’s death and attacked him,” said a police officer.

Parameshwar was badly injured as his son allegedly gouged out one of his eyes with the keys and damaged the other.

Abhishek then allegedly pushed his father down and tried to escape. However, the neighbours heard the screams of a family member and when Abhishek tried to flee, they chased him, nabbed him and handed him over to the police.

He has been arrested on the charge of attempt to murder. The neighbours took Parmeshwar, who was bleeding profusely, to a hospital in an autorickshaw. “Doctors told us that they are trying to restore partial eyesight,” said the police.

Abhishek, who works in an automobile company, is the oldest of three children, and lived on the second floor of a building owned by his father.

Parameshwar resided on the first floor. According to the police, soon after their mother passed away last month, Abhishek allegedly got into a fight with his younger brother.

He wanted a house in J P Nagar to be given to him, even though his father had refused his past requests. On Tuesday morning, he visited his father to discuss the matter. Parameshwar opposed his claim, and in a fit of rage, Abhishek allegedly punched his father with a key and gouged out his right eye-ball. He then punched his left eye,” said the police.

Bengaluru, Feb 6: A 33 -year-old techie who was on the run after allegedly bludgeoning her mother to death and attempting to murder her brother at their house near KR Puram early on Sunday was arrested along with her friend from a hotel in Port Blair, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, on Wednesday morning.

C Amruta and Sridhar Rao were produced before a court in Port Blair to get a transit warrant, deputy commissioner of police (Whitefield) MN Anuchet said. Police initially thought she had committed the crime as she was unable to repay a loan of Rs 15 lakh and feared being humiliated by the lenders.

"But now we strongly suspect that Amruta and Rao were in a relationship, which was opposed by her mother and brother. We don't see any other reason for her to attack her family members. We can get more details only after questioning the duo," another police officer said, adding, "The most important question is: Did Rao know Amruta was going to kill her mother? Or he got to know about it only later? He'd booked their air tickets to Port Blair on January 31 itself."

Rao and Amruta worked together in a software company in Whitefield till 2017. "Then they joined different firms and were in constant touch," police said.

Preliminary probe revealed the duo flew to Port Blair by catching a flight from Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) at 6.30am on Sunday. CCTV footage had shown Rao - wearing a full-face helmet and carrying a backpack - waiting near Amruta's house on a gearless scooter on Sunday morning. After she arrived, they chatted for a while before riding away. They arrived at KIA on the same bike, police said.

"We checked the passengers' list at KIA for that day and found Amruta's name. With the help of Port Blair police, we traced the duo to a hotel," an investigating officer said.

On Sunday morning, Amruta hit her 54-year-old mother C Nirmala on the head with a digging bar. She later stabbed her younger brother C Harish in the neck. Harish collapsed and thinking that he was dead, she left the house.

In his statement to police, Harish stated, "Around 4.30am, Amruta entered my room and stabbed me. I asked her what was wrong. She said she had a debt of Rs 15 lakh and didn't want the debtors to harass me and our mother."
