Feb. 22: Violence among human beings is gradually increasing by leaps and bounds. For reasons which apparently seems to be very trivial or peculiar, people become blood thirsty. Such an incident was reported from Barpeta district of Assam.

On Tuesday, a youth,identified as Samsul Haque, a resident of Alipur area in Kalgachia in Barpeta asked for a ‘bidi’ from his father Lal Miyan. This resulted in a scuffle between the father and the son as Lal Miyan refused to give his son a ‘bidi’ and rather scolded him. That was enough for Samsul to get enraged and he stabbed his father to death.

Police reached the spot and arrested Samsul Haque. He was later sent to judicial custody.
