The boy had earlier reprimanded his sister and even beaten her over the issue, Jadhav said. Yesterday, when their parents went out for work, the boy allegedly strangled his sister to death with a 'dupatta' (a long narrow piece of cloth worn around the neck), he said.
The Valiv police later nabbed the boy and registered a case against him under IPC section 302 (murder), he said. The body was sent for postmortem, Jadhav said, adding that a probe was on into the incident.
