Woman held for murdering her nephew over farm land dispute
Latur (PTI): A 34-year-old woman has been arrested for allegedly killing her seven-year-old nephew over a land dispute with his parents in Chakur town of Latur district in Maharashtra, police said on Monday.
The boy, who is a grandson of a local temple priest, went missing on Sunday morning. After an unsuccessful search, the family approached the police around 1 PM. The body of the boy was recovered by the police near an old house along the Chakur-Ujalamb road.
During the investigation, police detained the aunt of the boy based on leads provided by a dog squad.
According to preliminary findings, the woman allegedly strangled the boy over an agricultural land dispute. She then attempted to conceal the body and destroy evidence.
"In a bid to deflect suspicion, she also staged a false disappearance of her son," police said, adding that further investigation is underway.
