Woman Kills 9-Year-Old Son After Boy Catches Her Having Sex With Elderly Man

A woman killed her nine-year-old son after the boy threatened to inform his father about her illicit relationship. The incident took place in the southern Indian state of Telangana over the weekend.

The boy woke up from his sleep and found his mother in a compromising position with a 60-year-old man. When the boy threatened to reveal about the same to his father, the woman strangled the boy to death with a towel as her lover held his legs. She then told her neighbors that the boy was not keeping well. A while later, she told them the boy had developed rashes and that he wasn’t responding.

The neighbors arrived at her home and found the boy lying dead. They immediately alerted the boy’s father who in turn suspected foul play and informed the police. The responding officers filed a case of unnatural death after noticing marks on the victim’s neck.

The mother was detained for questioning. During interrogation, she confessed to killing her son. She said she did so as she was scared the boy will spill the beans about her illicit relationship to his father.

“The boy went to sleep and got up some time later. This was when he saw his mother in an intimate position with the 60-year-old man. The boy was shocked and threatened to tell this to his father, who was away at work. In a fit of rage, she strangled the boy to death,” police said. A murder case was registered.
