A Malad resident on Saturday killed his mother when she did not serve him dinner as she had gone to sleep early. The man had also been arrested last year for cutting a dog into six pieces because it was barking too loudly outside his house at night.

According to police, the accused has been identified as Kiran Chauhan, 40, resident of Nutan colony, Bhandarwada in Malad (west).

On Saturday around 10pm, Chauhan came home, under the influence of alcohol. He saw that his mother, Shaila, was sleeping. He got angry when she did not wake up and serve him food and started abusing his father, Shripat when he tried to calm him down.

“Chauhan’s father was trying to calm him down but he started abusing him. Hearing the noise, Shaila woke up and tried to separate them but Chauhan pushed her away. She told Chauhan that she would not serve him food if he came home drunk,” said a police officer.

“Shaila’s refusal further angered Chauhan and he rushed at his mother. When his father tried to stop him, he pushed him away. In a fit of rage, he picked up a grinding stone and hit his mother on head,” said Avinash Jadhav, senior police inspector, of the Malad police station.

“Shaila fell to the floor, bleeding heavily and Shripat informed their neighbours about the incident. They rushed Shaila to a nearby hospital where she was declared dead before admission” said Jadhav.

“Around a year ago, police had arrested Chauhan for cutting a dog into pieces because it was barking too loudly,” said a police officer.

Shaila’s body was moved to Bhagwati hospital for post mortem. The Malad police was informed about the incident and they arrested Chauhan, who has been remanded in police custody till August 26.
