The New Indian Express Thrissur
|January 20, 2025
SHOCKING information has come to light in the incident in which a 25-year-old youth hacked his mother to death at a relative's house at Puthuppady in Thalamassery on Saturday.
Ashiq, a drug addict, told the police that he killed his mother Subaida Kayikkal, 53, of Adivaram, as "punishment for giving birth." He is Subaida's only child.
The police said Ashiq took a machete from the nearby house and slashed Subaida's neck.
"He used to ask his mother for money from time to time. On Saturday, too, they had an argument over money. He had also asked Subaida to sell her property," said Thamarassery SHO Sajoojkumar A.
He said Ashiq had told many people that he wanted to kill his mother, and had tried to murder her two or three times before.
