Kerala Man Arrested for Allegedly Stabbing Parents to Death at Home
Ajeesh, a man from Ezhukumvayal, Kerala, was arrested for allegedly stabbing his parents, Antony (59) and Valsamma (55), to death at their home on Friday night. He reportedly had a history of alcohol and drug abuse and had undergone de-addiction treatment. After the attack, Ajeesh sent a video of his injured parents to a relative, who alerted neighbors and police. He told authorities he had sent his parents to "heaven" following a "call from God." His bedridden grandmother, present during the incident, was unharmed. Ajeesh was remanded in judicial custody, and the funeral will be held after their son returns from abroad.
