Mason Found Murdered in Korba; Son Under Police Interrogation

In a shocking incident from Banki Mongra, Korba district, a 49-year-old mason named Teerath Ram Yadav was found murdered in the courtyard of his home late Saturday night. His lifeless body was discovered around 1 a.m. by his daughter, with deep wounds on his head and body, indicating an assault with a sharp weapon.

 

According to police, Yadav had been the sole breadwinner of the family after the death of his wife. He lived with his son and younger daughter, while his elder daughter is married and resides elsewhere. Preliminary investigations suggest frequent domestic disputes between Yadav and his son.

Following the discovery of the body, a police team arrived on the scene along with a forensic unit and a dog squad. The police dog led investigators directly to the son, who reportedly began trembling under pressure. Authorities have taken the son into custody for further questioning.

This is the second murder reported in the Banki Mongra area in recent weeks, raising serious concerns about local safety. In a previous case, another young man was stabbed to death. The community remains tense, while police claim they are close to solving the case.

Authorities are also examining forensic evidence from the scene to confirm the identity of the attacker. Further updates are awaited as the investigation continues.
