The 18-year-old son, Armaan, shot and killed his father, Chandigarh Police head constable Nitin Singh, during a heated argument after his parents refused to let him immediately marry his girlfriend because he was under the legal age of 21.
Armaan was the main accused in a horrific road accident earlier in the year where an out-of-control Thar vehicle ran over and instantly killed two brothers on a motorcycle.
Following the fatal shooting inside their government quarters, Chandigarh police arrested Armaan, seized the weapon used, and registered a case under murder charges as well as the Arms Act.
