Son Kills Parents in Uttar Pradesh
A man named Ambesh, who is an engineer, killed his parents in a small town in India.
His parents did not like his wife because she was from a different religion, and they did not want her in their home.
Ambesh and his wife decided to separate, and he needed money to pay her.
When his father refused to give him the money, they had a big fight.
Ambesh hit his mother with a heavy stone and then hit his father many times.
After they died, he cut their bodies into pieces with a saw and threw them into a river.
He then told his sister that his parents had left home.
The police found out what happened and arrested Ambesh.
They are still looking for all the pieces of the bodies in the river.
Ambesh, a 30-year-old engineer, is accused of killing his parents, Shyam Bahadur (62) and Babita (60), in Jaunpur, Uttar Pradesh, India.
The murders occurred on December 8 after an argument over Ambesh's need for money to pay alimony to his Muslim wife, whom his parents had refused to accept.
Ambesh allegedly beat his mother with a sil batta (grinding stone) and then hit his father multiple times on the head, killing both.
He dismembered the bodies with a saw, placed the pieces in sacks, and threw them into a river to dispose of the evidence.
Ambesh was arrested on December 14 after his sister filed a missing persons complaint, and he confessed to the crimes under police questioning.
