Man attacked by sons for delaying marriage

Gonegandla (Kurnool district): Two men brutally attacked their aged father with sticks and broke his two legs. The gruesome incident took place at Gonegandla village in Yemmiganur constituency on Friday.

The victim has been identified as Mantha Raju (60). He was admitted in Yemmiganur government hospital for treatment.

According to sources, the victim Raju has two sons, aged 40 and 45 years respectively. Though the sons asked their father to set up a marriage for them, Raju never listened to them.
