Karnataka, July 21: In a shocking incident, a man killed his father, stuffed his body into a gunny bag and buried it near a highway in this district of the state, police said on Friday. Seventy-year-old Shivanappa, a resident of Vadluru, was murdered by 35-year-old son Eranna.
According to police, Shivanappa's land was acquired for the highway by the government. There was a dispute between Shivanappa and his son Eranna over money as the latter wanted all of it. As the elderly man refused to part with the money, there would be frequent quarrels between the duo. On July 7, while quarrelling, the accused son had assaulted his father with a pipe.
