'Stay away, I can handle it,' Akshat told his sister after murdering their father in Lucknow
The murder of a father by his 21-year-old son, Akshat Singh, in Lucknow has shocked the nation as he allegedly shot his father, dismembered the body, and tried to hide it in different locations.
The chilling murder case from Lucknow involves 21-year-old Akshat Singh, who has been arrested for shooting his father, dismembering the body, and hiding it in a blue barrel. Following an argument, Akshat allegedly shot his father after the latter displayed a rifle during their confrontation. Despite initial claims, authorities believe the murder was not premeditated given Akshat's subsequent purchase of a knife online, followed by a saw to aid in dismembering the body.
Police have placed him under remand for intensive questioning, revealing disturbing details about the events. Reports indicate that after the shooting, Akshat attempted to cover the body with clothes and a quilt. However, when this effort failed, he opted to sever his father's limbs and dispose of them separately in desolate areas, concealing the torso and head in a blue drum at their home. This gruesome method of body disposal has raised significant concerns and questions regarding the mental state of Akshat and the nature of their family dynamics.
As investigative efforts continue, new revelations emerge daily, highlighting the growing need for awareness regarding familial tensions that can escalate into violence. The incident has struck a chord nationwide, prompting discussions about parental relationships, youth behavior, and the role of mental health services in preventing such tragedies in the future.
