A 15-year-old boy and his mother were arrested by the Rakhiyal police for stabbing a 63-year-old man to death on Friday.

As per police official, the incident took place in the Monogram Chawl of Rakhiyal area and the deceased is identified as Harikesh Sinh, a resident of Rakhiyal.

Harikesh's elder son, Sanjay is in jail for committing some other crime, while Sanjay's wife Anjali and 15-year-old son lived in the same house with his three other sons.

On Friday the accused were asked to move to another house by the victim Harikesh after constant fights between Anjali and daughters-in-law.

To sort out the matter, they were asked to move out. The dispute broke out after disagreement on household items.

As per police officers, while shifting their apartment, Anjali and son forcefully tried to take away the refrigerator. But the mother and son continued dragging the fridge outside the house.

This resulted in an argument between Anjali and Harikesh. Things took a violent turn when victim slapped Anjali. While seeing his mother being beaten up, her teenager son pulled out a knife from his pocket and stabbed Harikesh.
