A teenaged boy allegedly hacked his father to death as he was miffed with him for torturing his mother in Madhya Pradesh's Mandla district.
The boy was later arrested.
The 15-year-old boy attacked his father Hari Prasad (46) with an axe last night at their home in Satwas village under Damini police station limits in Mandla, police said.
The boy, angry with his father who was a habitual drinker, for allegedly sexually torturing his mother, killed him after his sisters had gone to sleep.
The accused was later arrested and his two sisters were also held for allegedly helping him in dumping the body.
Further probe was on, police added.
