Haveri: A 11-year-old was abducted and murdered by two brothers aged 20 and 17 planning to seek ransom for him a few days later.
The duo were arrested on Friday, March 13 after they fled home and their parents — both teachers — reported their suspicious behaviour to police.
It is gathered that the duo abducted Tejasgouda, son of advocate Jagadish Mallikeri, in a car from his house in Ashwini Nagar on March 7, the boy’s parents complained to cops the same day and a search was launched.
Four days after Tejasgouda went missing his charred body was found on hostel premises near his house. Reportedly the brothers had trawled many films and TV shows on destroying evidence and evading cops but the burned body left enough leads to follow.
The SP said the brothers strangled the 11-year-old with a rope soon after they abducted him and dumped the body in the Heggeri tank. However, they seem to have panicked and soon returned to the spot. Retrieving the body, they packed it in a gunny bag and buried it in their backyard, then took out the body again and burned it at BCM hostel premises on March 10. The next day, they escaped from home
Shockingly the brothers had attempted similar crimes in the past to demand money but failed to follow through with their plans.
