Man arrested for killing son who molested cousin
Jaipur, July 3: A man was arrested in Rajasthan's Bharatpur on Monday for killing his 16-year-old son who sexually abused a cousin for months and tried to rape her, police said.
Indrajit Jatav told police that his son Rajveer had been molesting the cousin for months but she remained silent. However, on June 25, Rajveer tried to rape her after which she confided in her family, said Bharatpur Superintendent of Police Anil Kumar Tank.
According to the SP, Rajveer had a bitter relationship with his father who would scold him for watching porn on his mobile phone.
On June 28, the father and son had a fight during which Indrajit lost his cool and shot at his son with a home-made pistol.
He then called up some of his relatives including his brother-in-law and uncle who cremated the body secretly in the fields while Rajveer's mother applied cow dung and mud on the walls and floor of the house to hide the blood stains.
The villagers in Khohari, where the family lives, assumed it to be a case of human sacrifice as the last rites were performed secretly after sunset which is against norms, and informed police. However, the SP ruled this out.

Misri, Rubio discuss trade, Quad; US diplomat set to visit India in May
Washington (PTI): US Secretary of State Marco Rubio is set to visit New Delhi next month, it was announced here after his "productive meeting" with India’s Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri on a range of issues, including trade and the Quad.
Misri, who is on a three-day visit here, met Rubio at the White House. The two leaders reviewed bilateral relationships, especially trade, critical minerals, defence and the Quad.
"Welcome to the White House @VikramMisri! Productive meeting with @SecRubio that focused on our bilateral relationship, especially trade, critical minerals, defence and the Quad," US Ambassador to India, Sergio Gor, who was also present at the meeting, posted on X.
Secretary Rubio looks forward to visiting India next month, Gor said.
Earlier, Misri held separate meetings with US Deputy Secretary Christopher Landau and US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Allison Hooker.
"Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau met with Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri today in Washington. The leaders reaffirmed the close partnership between the two countries and shared news about the situation in the Persian Gulf and other global and regional priorities," Tommy Pigott, Principal Deputy Spokesman for the Department of State, said in a statement.
Hooker said she and Misri discussed how India and the US can work closer together on security, defence, and the economy.
“We are finding practical ways to make both Americans and Indians safer and more prosperous, including through the Quad,” she said.
The Indian embassy in the US said Hooker and Misri took stock of the India-US bilateral agenda since the Foreign Office Consultations held last December.
The two diplomats also shared assessments on recent developments in West Asia, as well as regional issues of mutual interest.
US Vice President J D Vance is leading a delegation to Islamabad for talks with Iranian leaders after the warring sides agreed to a two-week Pakistan-brokered ceasefire.
