Bareilly (UP), May 9 (IANS) In a shocking incident, a man strangulated his three-year-old son in a fit of rage and dumped him in the forest, thinking him to be dead.
A woman from a neighbouring village later found the boy and took him home.
According to the SHO of Cantonment police station, Rajeev Singh, Ram Lakhan's wife informed the police that her husband had confessed to killing their son following a fight with her. A police team went looking for the 'body' but could not find the child.
Later, the police were tipped that a woman form the neighbouring village had found an abandoned boy. The police went to her house, identified the boy and handed him over to his mother.
Ram Lakhan has been booked under IPC Section 308 (attempt to commit culpable homicide) and taken into custody.
The authorities on Monday extended curfew in the Meghalaya capital as violence continued in tension-hit areas the previous night with mobs indulging in stone-pelting on security forces for the last four days.
According to sources, Dilpreet Singh threatened Grewal over a WatsApp call, asking him for extortion money. The gangster has threatened to kill Grewal if he fails to meet his demand.
In an application to the Police Commissioner, Fazilpuria said he feared for life and thus wanted police protection. He has even applied for arms licence.
A video showing militants interrogating a special police officer (SPO), who was shot at and critically injured by the ultras in Pulwama district, has gone viral on social media.
