A 20-year-old man, David Felix has killed his father for allegedly appearing to him in a dream as a bird; a development that has thrown the people of Madakiya village in Zangon Kataf Local Government Area of Kaduna into panic and confusion.
A neighbour who pleaded anonymity disclosed that Felix confessed to the crime after he was interrogated by his kinsmen before being handed over to the police.
According to the source: “Felix told newsmen on Wednesday that his late father recurrently manifested in his dreams as a bird with a human face, attempting to harm him.”
It was gathered that during interrogation at the headquarters of the police, the suspect again admitted to committing the crime.
He, however, expressed regret over his actions, saying, he took the action after waking up from sleep and hit his father with a pestle while the father was asleep.
It was gathered that the action of his son eventually led to his death.
Presenting the suspect before newsmen, the police spokesman ASP Mansir Hassan announced that charges would be filed once investigation is concluded.
