WONDERS AS Son Kills Father For Preventing Him From Going Out by geadom6: 4:34pm On May 18, 2019 |
One Babatunde Olagesin is currently cooling his heels in police custody after he allegedly hacked his father , Taiwo Olagesin , to death with a cutlass . City Round learnt that a fight broke out between the father and son on Monday , May 6 , 2019 in their residence in the Ijoko area of Ogun State. It was gathered that the suspect had wanted to leave home for Oshodi , Lagos State , around 6 am, but was prevented by his father , who insisted that he (son) would accompany him somewhere . Our correspondent learnt that Taiwo locked up the doors leading outside the premises to keep his son inside . When it appeared he could not restrict his son , Taiwo reportedly brought out a cutlass to scare him . Undeterred by the weapon , Babatunde was said to have struggled to collect it from his father . In the process , he reportedly used the weapon to cut his father in the stomach. It was gathered that neigbours alerted the police from the Agbado division to the incident and Babatunde was arrested. A police source disclosed to City Round that the suspect in his statement claimed to have killed his father by accident , adding that the case had been transferred to the Homicide Section of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department in Eleweran , Abeokuta . The source said , “The boy had a misunderstanding with his father . He said he wanted to go to Oshodi to ‘ hustle’ (make money ), but his father said he needed to follow him somewhere . The suspect claimed that his father brought out a cutlass to scare him and locked the doors leading outside. “ They started struggling with each other to get hold of the cutlass . He claimed he did not know when the cutlass pierced his father ’ s stomach . Before people could separate them, the father had slumped and started bleeding . He gave up the ghost before he could get medical care at the hospital . The suspect was about 30 years old . ” The deceased’ s neighbours approached by our correspondent declined comments on the incident, saying the matter was being investigated by the police . But a resident, who gave his name only as Seun, said the tragedy could have been averted if Babatunde ’ s mother was at home that day. He said , “ I was not around when the incident happened . It was when I returned from work in the evening that I learnt about it . From what I learnt , he always had problems with his father . His mother who usually cautioned him was not at home on the day the incident happened . The father had asked him to follow him somewhere but he insisted that he was going to Oshodi to work, which led to a fight . He hacked his father to death with a cutlass. ” The Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer , DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi , confirmed the incident, adding that the case would soon be charged to court. He said , “The suspect said he wanted to go somewhere but his father did not allow him . According to him , his father brought out a cutlass and while they were both trying to get hold of it , it mistakenly cut the man in the stomach . ” |
