PUNE: Warje police have arrested a 65-year-old unemployed man and his wife (60) for allegedly beating their 30-year-old son, a casual worker, to death sometime during the night intervening Aug 24 and 25 at their home after he demanded non-vegetarian food for dinner while in an inebriated condition.His parents refused to serve him non-vegetarian food, citing the month of Shravan.Senior inspector Mahesh Bolkotgi said, “The arrested man used to work as a casual worker, while his wife is a nurse.”“The deceased’s elder brother (34) lodged a complaint with the police. The deceased was a casual worker and used to consume liquor regularly. He used to pick up fights with his parents every day,” Bolkotgi said.“The elderly couple tried to pass off the murder as an accident,” Bolkotgi said.He said, “The deceased’s elder brother stays nearby, while his sister stays with the family. The deceased reached home around 8.30pm on Aug 24 in an inebriated condition. He demanded non-vegetarian food for dinner. However, his parents refused to serve him non-vegetarian food, citing the month of Shravan. During Shravan, the family does not consume non-vegetarian food,” he said.“This led to an argument between the couple and the deceased. The couple then punched and kicked him. There was bleeding from his face and head,” he said.Bolkotgi said, “The postmortem report also states that he died due to internal injuries.”“The couple tried to wake him up around 4am on Aug 25, but he did not respond. The elderly couple then went to their elder son’s house and told him that the deceased had reached home around 2am on Aug 25 in an inebriated condition and was bleeding when he reached home. They claimed that he might have met with an accident somewhere. However, the complainant had seen him reaching home around 8.30pm on Aug 24,” he said.
