According to police reports, Dhyani Singh Ghosh, 84, passed away at home after a prolonged illness. The deceased’s younger son, Deshraj, had been living with him and claimed it was his father’s wish that he perform the cremation. However, when the elder son, Kishan, arrived from outside the village, a heated argument broke out over who should carry out the last rites.
Police revealed that Kishan, who was allegedly intoxicated at the time, demanded that the body be divided so both brothers could perform the cremation separately. Alarmed by the escalating situation, villagers alerted local authorities. Police arrived promptly and managed to pacify Kishan, allowing Deshraj to proceed with the cremation as per their father’s alleged wishes.
Arvind Singh Dangi, the officer in charge of Jatara police station, confirmed that the incident required police intervention to avoid further conflict.

According to Additional Superintendent of Police Nitesh Bhargava, the argument escalated, and Mangal used a licensed firearm to fatally shoot his son. The accused is now in police custody.
