A 19-year-old-boy was arrested for bludgeoning a 75-year-old woman to death after attempting to rape her in Haryana, Hindustan Times reported.

The body of the elderly woman was found in a plot close to where the accused lived.

On the day of the incident, the woman had allegedly visited Raja’s requesting him to pick up some milk from her milkman, when he dragged her inside and attempted to rape her. When she raised an alarm, Raja allegedly gagged the woman with a scarf and then hit her head with a brick after she raised an alarm when he tried to rape her.

He then reportedly dragged the body 30 meters away from his house and dumped it in a plot.

Raja’s mother was also arrested for cleaning up the blood from the house in an attempt to save her son, the report said.

During the interrogation Raja confessed to having committed the murder on 7 November.
