A man is said to have murdered his 70-year-old father following a dispute over money in Wadlur village in Raichur district. The crime is said to have taken place on July 7 but came to light only on Wednesday.
The victim has been identified as Shivanappa Kumbar. His son Eranna (35) is the accused.
The accused used to quarrel with his father demanding a share of money out of the compensation of ₹20 lakh which was released to the latter after his two acres of land near Wadlur village was acquired by the authorities for a national highway.
