HYDERABAD: Two siblings, both government employees, who insulted their parents by allegedly garlanding their photograph with footwear, have been arrested by the Suryapet town police. The two were arrested on the complaint of their mother, who also alleged that her husband was abducted by their two sons to get property transferred on their names.
Nune Saroja approached police on December 14 with a complaint against her two sons — Ravindar, 54, and Dayakar, 46.
She told police that her sons, who were demanding that property be distributed to them, insulted her and their father Nune Sanjeeva Rao by placing footwear like a garland to their photograph. They also took photographs of this and insulting them.
Saroja told police that Ravindar and his two sons — Prashanth, 26 and Bhaskar, 21 — abducted her husband and urged police to trace him. On Tuesday morning, sub-inspector Edukondalu and police personnel went to the house of Ravindar at Thirumalanagar and apprehended him and his two sons and also Dayakar from Miryalaguda and took them to the police station.
Suryapet town inspector A Anjaneyulu said the sons confessed that they had forcibly made their father register properties on their names. All the four, who were arrested, were produced before the court and sent for judicial remand.
“Children harassing their parents for distribution of property will be punished according to law. Strict action will be taken when complaints are brought to us,” inspector Anjaneyulu said. The two sons harassing their parents for property, he said, was heinous, as both of them also had jobs and were in fact government employees.
