A 20-year-old man, David Felix, is alleged to have killed his father at home on September 30, in Madakiya village in Zangon Kataf LGA of Kaduna State.
It was gathered that the man took the decision after claiming that his father usually appeared to him in dream as a bird with a human face trying to kill him.
Answering questions from newsmen at the state’s police command, the suspect, who confessed to his crime, regretted his action.
He said he hit his father with a pestle while the father was asleep.
The command’s Public Relations Officer, ASP Mansir Hassan, who paraded the suspect, said the suspect would be charged to court after investigation.
