Two sons arrested for attacking father over motorcycle at Launkheri in Nagpur district

A dispute over a motorcycle at Launkheri village in Kamthi tehsil of Nagpur district turned violent. Two sons are accused of making a life-threatening attack on their own father. Khaparkheda police have arrested both accused sons.

The injured man has been identified as Vasudev Surajsingh Dhurve (50), who lives in Ward No. 2 at Launkheri, near the Hanuman temple. His sons Arjun Dhurve and Karan Dhurve have been named as the accused.

According to the information available, the incident took place on Friday night between about 9.15 and 9.30. Vasudev had returned home from work. At that time Arjun began questioning him about where the motorcycle had been kept. This led to an argument between father and son, and the atmosphere in the house soon turned tense.

During the argument, Vasudev tried to make his sons see reason. He allegedly told them that he had spent his hard-earned money on their education and had even borrowed money to give them funds to buy a vehicle, yet the two brothers kept quarrelling with each other.

Both sons are alleged to have disliked their father's words. They became angry and the argument turned violent. The attack on a father who had worked hard to meet his sons' education and needs has become a talking point in the village.

According to the complaint lodged with police, the accused attacked Vasudev during the argument. One son struck him on the right leg with a stick and hit him on the head with a piece of brick. The other son slashed his throat with a sharp blade.

Vasudev was seriously injured and collapsed on the ground. Chaos broke out at the spot. With the help of family members and neighbours, he was rushed to the Medical hospital in Nagpur for treatment. As his condition is serious, he has been admitted to the trauma centre, where he is undergoing treatment.

Khaparkheda police began an investigation as soon as they were informed of the incident. They have registered a case under Sections 108(1) and 3(5) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). Both accused brothers have been arrested.

Police are currently looking into all aspects of the case, including the circumstances of the dispute, the weapons used in the attack and other facts related to the incident.

A dispute that began over a household matter like a motorcycle has ended in an alleged life-threatening attack on a father. The incident has raised questions about growing tension in family relationships. The full circumstances behind it will become clear only after the police investigation.
