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.

Bengaluru (PTI): BJP leader R Ashoka on Friday claimed that the ongoing power struggle between Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and his deputy D K Shivakumar has created massive confusion in Karnataka.
He remarked that the proverb “when two people fight, the third one benefits” has come true, as AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge is also now making efforts to become Chief Minister.
Speaking to reporters here, Ashoka said the entire government has turned into a house of confusion due to the alleged power tussle.
Kharge’s new statement has only added to the chaos, he said.
Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge had on Friday said that no date has been fixed yet to discuss possible leadership change in Karnataka.
This came a day after Kharge said there was no change of CM in Karnataka "for now" and that the leadership issue in the state would be resolved soon.
The BJP leader said that Kharge too has aspirations and that he was cheated earlier.
"Perhaps he has received a green signal from the Congress high command to become CM. Everyone is already saying Kharge should become CM. Kharge himself has declared, “I am ready to become CM.” Despite many attempts in the past, he never became CM. Now he is trying to seize the opportunity," the Leader of Opposition in the state assembly said.
According to him, the situation in Congress has perfectly become a case of “two people fighting, third one benefits.”
