A 19-year-old boy killed his father after coming to know that the latter had raped his married sister on Sunday. The incident took place in a village of Jamnagar’s Jodiya taluka.
Reportedly, the man had raped his daughter twice on Sunday morning. Traumatised, the girl called up her brother and informed her of about the sexual assault by her father.
Furious, the boy immediately rushed home and asked his father about the crime. After a heated altercation, he strangulated him till he died.
“The rape survivor had returned to stay with her mother since one month due to a troubled relationship with her husband in Devbhoomi Dwarka district. Her father, who worked as a casual labourer, came home once every 10-15 days,” P S Koringa, sub-inspector, Jodiya police station, said.
The police have detained the boy.
