Maharashtra, India: A 21-year-old youth in Maharashtra’s Thane district allegedly kidnapped and killed the eight-year-old son of a married woman he was in a relationship with. The crime occurred after the minor victim apprised his father of his mother’s illicit affair with the accused.


-The accused was in a relationship with the child's mother.

-The child had exposed his mother's illicit affair to his father.

-Due to this, the accused decided to kidnap and kill him.



The accused, identified as Jitendra Maddheshiya, has been arrested. Maddheshiya used to work as a cook at the eight-year-old boy’s house within Bhoiwada police station limits in Bhiwandi taluka of the district. He was in a relationship with his child’s mother.

On Thursday, the minor boy went missing from his house, following which a case of kidnapping was registered and investigations were initiated by the Bhoiwada police. On Friday, the investigators found the missing child’s body inside a closed apartment on the fourth floor of the building, where he lived with his family.

The police filed a case of murder late on Friday night. During the probe, it came to light that the victim’s father had sacked their cook from his job recently.  Suspecting a link to the crime, the investigators interrogated Maddheshiya, and he confessed to having murdered the child, according to a report published by The Times of India.  

“The accused said that he was unhappy with the child who had exposed his relationship with his mother to his father, who had laid him off from work after learning about the same,” the report quoted the police as saying.
