A similar case of an argument between a parent and a child turning ugly, was reported from Madhya Pradesh's Barwani district.

According to the police, a heated argument erupted between Chandan and his 58-year-old father, Jagan Badole, over money. Chandan had been persistently demanding more than Rs 2 lakh from his father, police had told AHN earlier. His father had already given him Rs 2 lakh earlier by mortgaging a piece of land. On that fateful afternoon, as Jagan was returning home with his wife, Gauri Bai, an Anganwadi worker, Chandan intercepted them on the road. A verbal altercation quickly escalated into a physical scuffle.

In a fit of rage, Chandan allegedly took out the weapon, probably a country-made pistol, and shot his father at point-blank range in the head, killing him instantly.

Thirty two-year-old Chandan Badole, who was on the run for 35 days after allegedly committing the crime, was later arrested by the Madhya Pradesh Police from the dense forests along the banks of the Narmada River.
