Bagalkot:
In what appears to be a repeat of the Shraddha Walker murder case, a man in Karnataka’s Bagalkot allegedly killed his father, chopped his body into 32 pieces and dumped them in an open borewell, police said.
After the murder was revealed, the police recovered the body parts of the person with the help of earth movers. The accused Vithala Kulali has been arrested and sent to judicial custody.
On December 6, 20-year-old Vithala allegedly killed his father Parshuram Kulali (53) with an iron rod in a fit of rage. According to the police, Parshuram often used to abuse Vithala, the younger of his two sons, under the influence of alcohol. Parshuram’s wife and elder son live separately.
Last Tuesday, Vithal, unable to bear his father’s abuse any more, picked up an iron rod and killed his father.
After the murder, Vithala cut Parasuram’s body into 32 pieces and disposed of the parts in an open borewell of his farm located near Mantur Bypass on the outskirts of Mudhol, a town in Bagalkot district.
