     The Deputy Superintendent of Police at Lambi station stated, ‘Yesterday, Shivraj Singh of Dhaula village fatally shot his only son, Navjot Singh, who, despite undergoing treatment for injuries, succumbed to them today.’ The reason for the murder, he said, was the father and uncle’s suspicion regarding the boy’s paternity, leading them to use a licensed weapon to shoot him.
