A shocking murder case has emerged from Bihar’s Bhojpur district, where a 14-year-old boy was allegedly killed for opposing his mother’s extramarital relationship.
The victim, identified as Mohit Raj, was a Class 8 student and son of Satyendra Singh. According to police, Mohit’s mother, Malti Devi, was allegedly involved in a relationship with a man named Santosh Kumar Singh, a resident of the same village.
Mohit reportedly opposed the relationship, which frequently led to arguments between him and his mother.
On October 27, Mohit went to an ATM at Karath Bazaar to withdraw ₹6,000. While returning home, he was allegedly attacked, beaten and strangled to death. His body was recovered the following morning near Karath village.
During the investigation, police allegedly uncovered a murder conspiracy involving the boy’s mother and her partner.
According to the police, Santosh Kumar Singh and two other associates allegedly carried out the killing at Malti Devi’s instigation.
The police arrested Malti Devi on November 1 and sent her to judicial custody. Raids are underway to arrest Santosh Kumar Singh and the other accused.
A 14-year-old boy who reportedly objected to his mother’s relationship has lost his life in a horrific manner. The case raises deeply disturbing questions about the circumstances that led to the murder of a child by a mother who was supposed to protect him.
