Noida, November 26: In a tragic incident, a father pleaded for mercy for his 15-year-old son accused of murdering his 50-year-old mother in Greater Noida village. According to a Times of India report, the teen is suspected to be mentally challenged and is one of the prime suspects in the case because he was in the same room, where his mother lay dead in a cot.

Police have found that the woman had a 'nagging nature' and would often irritate his son by waking him in the middle of his sleep and would ask him to get some tobacco for her. There have been frequent fights within the family because of her habit of chewing tobacco. However, she didn't do enough to mend her ways.
