Lucknow Teen Admits to Killing Mother Over Affair, Claims PUBG Blame was False
In a shocking incident from Lucknow, a 16-year-old boy confessed to killing his mother over her affair with another man, dispelling the earlier PUBG angle that police had suggested. The incident unfolded on June 4, when the boy allegedly shot his mother with his father’s licensed revolver while his father was away on duty.
The boy revealed the grim details in a video call to his father on June 7, showing him the dead body of his mother, which he had kept locked in a room for two days. Initially, police suggested that the murder was related to the boy’s anger over being denied permission to play PUBG, but new revelations have surfaced.
A family member has claimed that the police fabricated the PUBG story to cover up the real motive. Following this, the boy was sent to a juvenile home, and an FIR was filed against him under Section 302 for murder.
During his statement to the Child Welfare Committee (CWC), the boy explained that when his father was away, a ‘property dealer uncle’ frequently visited his mother. After informing his father about this, his parents fought, and his mother hit him. The boy, filled with anger, recounted that his father once told him, “If I were in your place, I would have shot her,” and encouraged him to do whatever he wished.
The boy further detailed to the CWC how his mother had lost Rs. 10,000 once, and he was beaten for it despite not taking the money. Seeking revenge, he woke up one night, while his mother and sister slept, took the pistol, and shot his mother. Upon discovering the murder, his father initially cursed him but later remarked that there would be ‘peace’ at home now.
Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police, Qasim Abidi, stated that the boy threatened his nine-year-old sister to keep silent and used a room freshener to mask the smell of the decomposed body. The Indian Olympic Association (IOA) chief, Narinder Batra, in response to the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR), denied any recognition or promotion of PUBG as a violent game.
The boy, who showed no remorse, expressed readiness to face the death penalty, telling the magistrate, “The maximum punishment is the death penalty, and I am ready to face it. I killed my mother with a pistol and partied the entire night with my friends.”
Family members of the teen insist that he has been falsely framed, alleging that others exploited his hatred towards his mother to carry out the murder. The investigation continues, with the case highlighting deeper issues of family conflict and the tragic consequences of domestic disputes.
