From Hindu, Islamic, Christian and Sikh scriptures, a person in Madhya Pradesh, heavily attracted to a district court, sentenced a person to death for the killing of his mother, given that if a protector changes the destroyer, “Why do the parents want to raise such a child?”
Special Judge LD Solanki took this decision on Wednesday, given: “One who takes responsibility for protecting the parents, who is supported in their old age, if he becomes a very protector destroyer, why do the parents pick up such a child? If the fence starts eating the crop themselves, will the farmer trust the farmer?” The court saw in its order.
The judge underlined that if the generosity was shown in such a case, “No childless parents would adopt any orphan child, and it will have a very adverse effect on the society”.
Special Public Prosecutor Rajendra Jadhav said that the incident took place on May 6, 2024, when Deepak Pachauri, a resident of the railway colony in Sheopur, reported her mother, Ushadevi, after claiming that she left for the hospital and never returned. A case of a missing person was registered on 8 June. However, in Deepak’s statements, the discrepancies interrogated deep police, during which he allegedly confessed to killing his mother.
Deepak was adopted 20 years ago by Ushdevi and her husband, Bhuvenendra Pachauri from an orphanage in Gwalior. His father died in 2021, leaving him as nominated for a certain deposit of Rs 16.85 lakh, which was later defeated in the stock market.
His mother had Rs 32 lakh in his account and allegedly refused to pay him when he demanded it. On 6 May, when she was climbing the stairs after bathing, she allegedly pushed her down, hit her with an iron rod and strangled her with a sari. Later he allegedly buried the body indoors, under the bathroom floor, under the bathroom floor using cement and bricks.
Judge Solanki’s decision attracted a lot of religious teachings to clarify the moral depression of matricide. Quoting Ramacharamams, the judge recalled Lord Rama’s reverence for his parents: “Listen mother, how lucky are you who sleep. People who are fond of following their father and mother’s words,” said.

The court said that “Lord Rama is telling his mother … that (a) the lonely son is really blessed who follows the words of his parents … A son who satisfies his parents is rare in the whole world”.
The decision also mentioned the story of Shravan Kumar, who was a dutiful son, who took his blind parents on pilgrimage, in which the accused was contrary to the actions of the accused. Turning to Sikh teachings, the court cited the verses to tell Guru Granth Sahib that “who serves the mother and father knows his own salvation. “One who serves the mother and father is called a true brave person. Without such brave people, how can the lineage continue?”
Borrowing from the Quran, the court said: “It has been written that your God has decided that you do any kind of worship, but kind to the parents. If one of them or both of them reach old age with you, do not do them … rebuke them, but speak them respectfully”.
From the Bible, this Matthew cites 15: 4, saying: “Respect your father and mother, and whoever curses his father or mother will be killed. Borrowing the verses from the exodus, the court said: “Whoever collides with his father or mother will be killed. Anyone who curses his father or mother will be killed.”

“These teachings,” the judge wrote, “Children permission to serve their parents till old age”.
The court sentenced Deepak Pachauri under Section 302 IPC, and sentenced to seven years rigorous imprisonment under Section 201 IPC with a fine of Rs 1,000 under each section. In the case of failure to pay the fine, he will undergo an additional six months rigorous imprisonment for each count.
“It is clear that the accused, out of greed for jewelery and money, did not allow the deceased to be alive, hit his head several times with an iron rod, which broke the skull … caused the nose, injured wounds, injured bones … The accused strangled her with a sari and buried her in the bathroom with brick and cement.
