Police in Shivpuri’s Sirsaud area have arrested Dilip Rawat for bludgeoning his uncle to death with a stone while intoxicated, linking the act to a seven‑year feud and suspicion over his father’s murder.
The body of a man identified as the victim's paternal uncle was discovered near the Rati Kirar Pulia locality in the Sirsaud police jurisdiction of Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh. According to the police report, the victim was struck on the head with a large stone, a blow that proved fatal.
Investigators say the accused, 32‑year‑old Dilip Rawat, was found in a state of intoxication at the time of the incident. Rawat was taken into custody shortly after the crime scene was secured, and he is now being held on murder charges.
Police officials indicated that the killing appears to be the culmination of a seven‑year‑old personal feud. Rawat allegedly believed the uncle was involved in the murder of his own father, prompting the violent retaliation.
The case has been registered under the relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code, and the investigation remains ongoing as authorities gather further evidence and statements from witnesses.
