  "account": "Pune: A 30-year-old man, Mahesh Bhagwat Gaikwad, was allegedly beaten to death by his father following a dispute over non-vegetarian food during the ongoing Shravan month. Mahesh's mother allegedly concealed the incident, leading to his arrest along with his father in connection with the case. The Warje Malwadi police have taken custody of both parents, Bhagwat Suryabhan Gaikwad (64) and Parvati Bhagwat Gaikwad (60). Mahesh, a resident of Ramnagar in Warje Malwadi, was reportedly unemployed and struggling with alcohol addiction. His wife had left him around 10 years ago due to his drinking habit, and the couple later divorced. Mahesh would often return home after consuming alcohol and would demand non-vegetarian food, which caused frequent arguments with his parents, especially during the Shravan month when non-vegetarian food was not prepared. On the night of Aug 24, Mahesh allegedly returned home drunk and was found unresponsive at around 4.30am by his mother, who woke his elder brother, Ganesh Bhagwat Gaikwad (34), a painter. Upon discovering Mahesh's condition, Ganesh found blood on his hand and injuries on Mahesh's head, nose, and mouth, along with marks around his neck. The two suspects have been arrested, and the matter is under investigation by the police.",
