In a tragic incident on Friday, two siblings were reportedly killed by their uncle and cousin over a land dispute in Dharampuri village, Sehore district, Madhya Pradesh. The event unfolded around 7:30 AM, while the victims were on their way to an examination center. The Siddikganj Police Station has jurisdiction over the area, located approximately 70 kilometers from the district headquarters.

Victims Identified

The deceased have been identified as Sheetal Malviya, aged 20, and her 19-year-old brother, Kuldeep Malviya. According to police reports, the siblings were approached by their uncle, Harisingh Malviya, and his son as they were traveling. Eyewitness accounts suggest that the duo was intercepted on the road when the alleged attack occurred.

Details of the Attack

Superintendent of Police Deepak Shukla stated that the accused allegedly assaulted the siblings using sticks. The brutal attack resulted in severe injuries for both victims, who succumbed to their wounds shortly thereafter. Police investigations suggest that the motives behind the violence stem from a long-standing familial land dispute.

Authorities revealed that Harisingh Malviya and the victims’ father, Jagdish Malviya, are brothers engaged in an ongoing conflict regarding property matters. This longstanding disagreement reportedly escalated, culminating in the tragic events of that morning.

Arrest of the Accused

In the aftermath of the incident, law enforcement officials have detained Harisingh Malviya and his son for questioning. The authorities have taken steps to ensure a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the attack. The bodies of the deceased have been sent to a medical facility for post-mortem examinations, as part of standard legal procedures.

Ongoing Investigation

Police are in the process of gathering more evidence to construct a clearer understanding of the incident. Further details will be released as the investigation proceeds, and officials are committed to uncovering the complete sequence of events that led to this unfortunate situation.
