Summary
- Father and son arrested for murder committed four days prior.
- Victim allegedly killed over a relationship dispute.
- Villagers blocked road, demanding swift arrests.
A father and son, Munna Singh and Chhotu Kumar Singh, have been arrested in Buxar for the murder of Rajesh Kumar alias Sukhari Mahato. The crime, which took place on November 9th in Vasudeva village, was reportedly motivated by a dispute over the victim's relationship with Munna Singh's daughter. Tensions escalated as the victim allegedly continued the relationship despite warnings, leading the accused to conspire in his death. They are said to have lured Rajesh for food and drinks before fatally attacking him.
The murder sparked significant anger among villagers, leading to a four-hour road blockade on the Dumraon-Bikramganj road. The protest concluded after the SP assured swift action. A special investigation team, formed under the SDPO, utilized technical evidence and intelligence to identify and arrest the father-son duo. During interrogation, they allegedly confessed to their involvement.
The police recovered a spade from the accused's residence, believed to be the weapon used in the crime. A case has been registered at Vasudeva police station under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). The arrests were made on Friday night, four days after the incident.
