Police have arrested the siblings identified as Alpana, 25, and her brother Anuj, 19, along with two others โ€” Alpanaโ€™s boyfriend Sanjesh and his friend Madan Yadav โ€” who allegedly aided them in the murder.

The siblings were reportedly upset at the fact that their father was planning to sell off a chunk of their agricultural land, apparently on the advice of the woman.

This, reportedly, led to a verbal confrontation between the deceased and the siblings.

โ€œThe siblings were unhappy with their father Sunil Kumarโ€™s lifestyle and his association with women. He had sold off several bighas of farmland and was about to sell another six bighas for Rs 20 lakh,โ€ said a police official.

โ€œAlpana and Anuj then allegedly planned to murder their father and asked Sanjesh and Madan to help them. Alpana acquired the murder weapon, the leg of a wooden cot, and gave it to Madan. Madan entered the house and allegedly beat Sunil to death while he was asleep,โ€ he said.

The murder weapon was found in a field nearby and two similar cot legs were found on the terrace, said the police.
