He also opposed his mother’s plan to buy a cellphone for his sister by taking a loan. Parvathi had reportedly told Manjunath that he was no one to tell her whether to buy the cellphone for his sister.
At this point, an enraged Manjunath shot her with a country-made gun that was lying at home. Later, he also shot his sister, the police said. The incident came to light after the accused’s father returned home and lodged a complaint with the police against his son.
