Bengaluru: A shocking case has emerged from Rajarajeshwari Nagar’s BEML Layout in Bengaluru, where a 42-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly killing his 72-year-old paralysed mother by pushing her from the terrace of their residence.

The victim, identified as Savitramma, had been bedridden for nearly five years following paralysis. Police said the incident took place on Sunday afternoon.

Alleged Act At 4th-floor Residence

According to initial reports, the accused, Venkatesh, took his mother to the terrace of their fourth-floor home before allegedly pushing her off. She died on the spot due to the impact of the fall.

Neighbours alerted authorities after the incident, following which police reached the location and took the accused into custody.

Police are also looking into other possible factors, including the family’s financial condition, to understand what may have led to the incident.

As part of the probe, officers are questioning the accused, examining his mental health, and reconstructing the sequence of events leading up to the crime.

Case Registered, Investigation Underway
