The man, who was said to have become furious, started beating the boy and in the process, hit him on the head with the iron in his belt. The boy was said to have slumped and died immediately.

His body was discovered in the morning when the suspect informed his neighbours of his son’s death but dis not say what led to his death.

The suspicious neighbours rushed to his house to find the boy’s body with blood all over it. The boy’s skull, during examination, was found to have been fractured. The suspect was subsequently arrested and handed over to the police.
