Is a piffling tract of land worth more than a priceless and irreplaceable human life??? well the answer to this query would certainly lie in the affirmative if this dastardly incident is any parameter to go by.........
An age old dispute between two siblings (brothers) took a deathly turn in Badhapur village of Uttar Pradesh's Kanpur district on a fateful and murderous Tuesday night as the elder brother mercilessly and satanically hacked his younger brother to death and fled the scene before fellow villagers could intervene.......
According to fellow villagers Gangaram (the accused) and Ram Kishan (the deceased or victim) were at loggerheads with each other for the last few years ever since their father passed away a little over five years ago without distributing or parcelling out the six acres or so of ancestral land owned by the family within the village limits........
Frequent scuffles and squabbles between the two siblings over their due share of the spoils were the order of the day and fellow villagers had to intervene or intercede every single time and separate the two warring brothers who were constantly baying for each other's blood........
Things however took a turn for the worse at around 7:30 pm or so on the afore mentioned Tuesday (August 2; 2016) night when Gangaram unceremoniously and maniacally barged into Ram Kishan's modest dwelling when he was home alone and proceeded to hack him to death before taking to his heels and making good his escape from the murder scene........
Fellow villagers who rushed to the spot on hearing sounds of the melee found a grievously injured Ram Kishan lying in a rapidly spreading pool of his own blood and rushed him to the village's primary health centre where the on duty doctor pronounced him brought dead on arrival........
Police officials from the nearby Akbarpur police kotwali arrived at the primary health centre minutes after being alerted by the village's mukhiya or headman registered a case of murder against the absconding Gangaram and sent Ram Kishan's mortal remains for the legally mandated post mortem to the state government run district hospital........
Which brings us back to the moot question about the intrinsic value of a seemingly invaluable; priceless and irreplaceable human life........
