A 16-year-old boy, missing since the murder of his mother and sister near Delhi earlier this week, was picked up from Varanasi on Tuesday night and has confessed to killing them with scissors and a pizza cutter because he was scolded and beaten up at home, a senior police officer said.
The juvenile, who was the prime suspect in the double murder, was detained last night from Mughalsarai near Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh from where he had called his father, police said. The father had appealed to him to “come home and he should not be afraid. He should come and tell the truth.”
