New Delhi: Remember the 16-year-old Lucknow boy who allegedly killed his mother as she stopped him from playing PUBG? Although the teenager confessed to having committed the gruesome crime, a lot of new angles have emerged. They include the family’s allegation that the boy has been framed by police.
The teen was sent to a juvenile home after he allegedly shot his mother with his father’s licensed gun on June 4. According to reports, the boy showed no remorse over his action and has been narrating his story to the minors present there.
The accused told the magistrate, “The maximum punishment is death penalty and I am ready to face it. I killed my mother with a pistol and also partied the entire night with my friends,” India Today reported. Infuriated at the reply, the magistrate asked the authorities to seek remand and send him to a juvenile home.
Police filed a first information report (FIR) and added Section (302) murder against the accused.
A worker of the juvenile home told India Today, “Ever since the child has come here, he has been asking for mouthwatering dishes and has been pointing towards the mistake of the police in the case. He says he has landed here because the police officials are at fault. But the accused has also confessed to his crime, that he killed his mother and police have done the correct job by sending him here.”
The magistrate asked the child, “Why did you kill your mother? Are you not afraid?”
The boy’s younger sister told family members that hours after allegedly killing his mother, he went out of the house on a two-wheeler to meet someone at 2 am. The victim’s sister said, “Bhaiya locked me inside a room in a hurry and went out to meet someone at 2 am.” However, the police did not share these details with media persons, the report said.
What is more, the teen’s family members have been claiming that the child has been falsely framed in the murder case. They suspect that the real accused has reportedly taken advantage of the child’s hatred towards his mother to execute the murder.
They also claimed that he used his father’s licensed gun to fire shots in the air and took training to handle and use a pistol. A family member, on the condition of anonymity, told India Today, “The boy underwent training on how to handle and use the pistol. He also told his father about the training and the latter asked him to fire shots in the air and practice the same many times.”
The teen had told his relative’s son that he had fired shots in the air using the imported gun multiple times and also aimed at perfecting his shots.
Other details:
- According to the family members, the police have cooked up the entire PUBG theory.
- The teen threatened and offered Rs 5,000 to his friend to dispose of the body. However, his friend refused to do it and went home. The boy partied with his friends and also played cricket after committing the crime which his mother would have raised objections to.
- On June 7, the boy video-called his father and showed him the dead body of his mother.
- The son also showed the pistol he had used to allegedly kill his mother and spoke to his father for around 30 minutes.
