Bangalore: Father abhors girls - Hacks two daughters to death, injures third


Daijiworld Media Network – Bangalore (SP)

Bangalore, Jul 1: In a shocking incident, a man who repeatedly expressed anger against his wife for giving birth to female children, hacked two daughters to death in a fit of rage on the night of Monday June 30. The third daughter survived with serious injuries.

Ramesh from Nidsale village in Tumkur had married Gowramma from Chennai about 16 years back. The couple got three daughters, Monica (9), Monisha (11), and the third one , Dharani, aged 14. The couple lives at Tunganagar near Byadarahalli on Magadi Road here. Ramesh, who tried to flee after committing this crime, was arrested by the policemen of Tavarekere station.

Ramesh, who was an auto rickshaw driver, could not achieve much financial progress because of his drinking addiction. In order to tide over poverty, he sold his auto recently, and started working in a factory. Gowramma used to work as maid in some houses. Ramesh, who appeared to be suffering from frustration and bouts of depression on account of poverty, often fought with his wife for giving birth to female children.

On Monday evening, at around 6 pm, Ramesh fought with wife after coming home drunk. Gowramma reportedly threatened him of committing suicide if he continued to harass her. When Gowramma went out briefly thereafter, Ramesh, inebriated at the time, suddenly attacked his three daughters with a thick sickle. Monica and Monisha, who suffered deep injuries to stomach, neck, and head, died on the spot. Developing cold feet at this sudden development, Ramesh came out and tried to lock the door and flee. But the owner of their house, as well as wife, Gowramma, both of whom arrived there, got suspicious at the sight of blood-stained clothes of Ramesh. Gowramma snatched key of the lock from husband, went in, and called neighbours and the police. The policemen carried Dharani to a hospital for first aid, after which, she was taken to Victoria Hospital for advanced treatment.

The girls were students of fourth, sixth, and ninth standards. The neighbours said Ramesh often turned wild for not having a male child, and expressed suspicion that he would have killed his daughters because of this rage.

    Thinking of the people are getting narrower day by day & we try to figure out profit or benefit in each of the relationship. So its natural for some parents to seek a son hoping him to take care of them in their old days!
    Many of us are blessed with good & caring parents but there are people who show sadistic behavior on their own children & feel they can do anything to their children, even if its not in good interest of children.

    His mother,
    His wife,
    His sisters,
    are not girls (females)
    Why he has so much hate-rad towards girls?
    Then why he married a Girl after all?
    What is his culture?

    Gruesome murder of helpless children is an unpardonable crime. However the root cause for this atrocious act seems to be alcohol.

    It is time that people are educated into living fruitful and useful lives.

    Only education and counseling can achieve the desired results. Hope some social service oriented body will give some thought to the prevailing situation where helpless young people are murdered for no fault of theirs and introduce counseling sessions

    We can devolop a good moral culture in our society by three things: Educate, Educate, Educate.

    This gruel act is beyond ones thinking.First Thing he forgot is he is responsible for the Girls birth.not wife but they dont go so far to think.second if there is/Girls at home he may get atleast a handful Rice when son in case puts out at his old Age.Third instead of drinking he can put together that Money and invest it clever ,can educate Girls and lead independent life.Not all the Family's having Girls are rich,but they survive.He should be punished .ma y These Girls souls find place next to angels and my sincere sympathy to the mother and the remaining Girl.

    Most gruesome and cold blooded murder.
    How he forgot or realized that without a mother (girl) he would not have come into existence in this world. Only the death by hanging (first chop off his private parts) brings justice to the innocent souls.

    Why did a poor man like him go on having so many kids? Weren't 2 kids more than enough for him? Surely the desire for a male child made him to have the third one as though he had numerous titles and property to pass on. It's high time that people change their mentality and treat the girl child equally.
