25YO Addicted To PUBG Chopped Father To Pieces For Not Giving Him Top-up Money

Video games are supposed to be fun.

They’re meant to be an escape from the daily grind of real life, to do something fun after a long day of slogging at work.

Or maybe you’re also an e-sports competitor, that works too.

On that note, PUBG (PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds) is a rather popular game. Millions of people play it across both PCs, consoles and now mobile as well.

But all’s well and good until you kill someone over it.

In real life, that is.

The First Incident

Raghuveer Kumbar, 25, is currently in custody of the police for killing his father, Shankrappa Kumbar, 60.

The reason is just as absurd as the situation.

Shankrappa would always advise against playing too much, as it was clear that Raghuveer was addicted to PUBG.

Come 7 September 2019, 12pm, the two had an argument about the issue, causing an intense fight to break out to the point where window panes were broken.

Even when the neighbours called the police, Raghuveer was only let off with a warning and nothing more.

Real talk? I wouldn’t risk it and would probably have him arrested straight away, but the police thought that it clearly wasn’t necessary.

The Crime

Of course, something worse always has to happen the following day.

On 8 September 2019 at 5am, the student asked his father if he could purchase mobile data in order to keep playing the game. Obviously, his father wasn’t too happy about this again.

So this is where things get super ugly.

Raghuveer got so pissed off that he locked his own mother in her room, before forcefully dragging Shankrappa to the kitchen and proceeded to chop him up with a meat cleaver.

…

Let that sink in for a while.

How anyone could do that to their own parents over a game is beyond me.

The neighbours called the police again when they heard screams coming from the house, only to witness the murder that took place.

Raghuveer was arrested on the spot, with confirmation that further action would be taken against him.

Glad the police aren’t taking any chances this time.

While video games are fun, please remember that everything should be managed in moderation.
