ABSTRACT:The observation homes, in Uttarakhand have a number of juvenile delinquents arrested under different types of crimes. A high school student aged 15 yrs belonging to a very simple family committed a violant crime but provocated by his own mother. In the day time his mother had a quarrel with her neighbour regarding a passage. She was so annoyed with the neighbour that when her son came from school she narrated the day's heated event and provoked her son to chop neighbour's head. The young sentimental child became so angered with revenge that without any pause brought a sharp weapon from inside the kitchen and repeatedly attacked the lady till she fell down and took her last breath. The news spread like a fire in the town. Police was called who arrested both mother and son to lock up. Everyone knew the boy was innocent but he committed a felonious crime just by obeying his mother.
