'Drug addict' kills father for property
A “drug addict” man murdered his elderly father by slitting his throat following a dispute over property at their Pithavog village residence in Rupsha upazila of Khulna on Tuesday night, said police and the family.
The victim, Profullo Kumar Biswas, 60, used to sing Kirton (folk songs based on Hinduism), said police.
They are trying to arrest his son Proshanto Biswas, 35, who has been on the run since the incident, said Rupsha Police Station Officer-in-Charge Md Rofiquel Islam.
He lived with his wife Anaroti Biswas, 55, and Proshanto, said the OC.
Sushanto Biswas, his another son who lives outside the area for job purpose, filed a murder case against his elder brother Proshanto, who very often used to beat his family members including his mother Anaroti Biswas, 55, over property and other issues, the OC quoted the family as saying.
On the day, Anaroti was not home as Proshanto chased him with an axe, said the OC. Neighbours first noticed the blood-stained body on the floor and called police, he said.
