FAISALABAD:
A man killed his mother and injured his father in Thikriwala police limits after an argument ensued when the electricity bill for the month was more expensive than usual. Reportedly, 56-year-old Sarwar, a resident of Chak No 67-JB, and his 22-year-old son Mujahid exchanged harsh words after the electricity bill for the month was steeper than usual.
