The minor boy and his cousin surrender before police

Lucknow: A minor, with the help of his cousin, hacked to death his father who had allegedly been ‘raping’ his two daughters for several years, in Uttar Pradesh’s Mathura district.

The two minors surrendered before the police after the crime.

According to police sources, the deceased, a resident of Bharatpur district in Rajasthan, had been sexually harassing his two minor daughters for several years. The mother of the victims died a few years back.

The minor brother of the victims had earlier also tried to stop their sexual harassment at the hands of their father, but failed.

The police said the minor then shifted his sisters to one of the relatives at Kosikalan area in Mathura district a few days back.

The father, however, reached there on Sunday and insisted on taking the two daughters home. The minor again protested and the two had a scuffle. The minor, then, with the help of his cousin, attacked his father with a sword. The father suffered serious injuries and later succumbed to them before being taken to a hospital.

The duo then went to the Kosikalan police station and informed the police about the incident. They were taken into custody.

The police said the girls had revealed in their statement that they had been sexually harassed by their father for the past few years.

A case has been registered.
