Fathers and Sons. It's not just a novel by Ivan Turgenev. It's the primordial struggle for power. At least I think Freud might say that. Anyway, here are some fathers and sons with difficult relationships.
Hi, my name is Carlito Abdula. My son and I were having a bonding time while drinking. But the session got heated and I slashed him on his neck. He died immediately.
A drinking session between father and son turned bloody after one of them was hacked to death in Mulanay town in Quezon province late Saturday night, March 18, police said Sunday, March 19.
Quezon police, in a report, said widower Carlito Abdula, 54, and his son, John Robert, 20, both farmers, were having a drinking session inside their house in Barangay (village) Latangan around 11:30 p.m.
But after having a drink too many, the bonding time led to a heated argument between the two that prompted the father to hack his son.
The victim sustained a fatal slash wound on the right part of his neck that caused his immediate death.
Police could not provide details about the altercation and are conducting further investigation.
The father was arrested and is facing criminal charges.
A sleeping 22-year-old man from Daanbatayan, northern Cebu died after he was allegedly beaten on the head with a hammer by his own father on early Wednesday morning, December 13, 2023.
The victim was identified as Marck Wen Monteza, 22, a laborer and a resident of MJ Cuenco Street in Barangay Poblacion, Daanbantayan.
Meanwhile, the suspect was identified as his father, 63-year-old Lim Piamonte Monteza, also a laborer.
A police report showed that the killing was reported to the authorities at around 7:00 a.m.
Police Senior Master Sergeant Alfredo Mandal, investigator at the Daanbantayan Police Station, told CDN Digital in a phone interview that the victim was sleeping inside his room when the deadly attack took place.
According to Mandal, the father and son had a rocky relationship because the latter was allegedly violent and he would always fight against his father.
A day before the attack, the two reportedly argued and the son flicked a shirt that hit his father.
After the argument, the father left the house to cool off.
On Wednesday dawn, the father found his son sleeping and decided to ask him of his problem of being hotheaded.
So he shook him to wake him up, but the son instead of getting up, shouted at him, asking him what he wanted, and then turned his back on the father to get back to sleep.
This made the father so angry — enough to drive him over the edge.
The father then a grabbed a hammer nearby and beat his son’s head several times until the son was left unconscious.
Mandal confirmed that the motive behind the incident was previous personal grudge due to past grudges.
During the interview with police, the suspect also said that he was scared that his son would kill him if he did not do it first.
The father allegedly had a suspicion that his son was using illegal drugs and that was why he would easily get angry.
According to Mandal, the incident happened without the suspect’s wife and other kids knowing as they were all asleep.
After killing his son, the man went to the house of his neighbor, who is a policeman, and told the latter about what he did.
The neighbor then called the police and told them that the father would voluntarily surrender.
Upon the arrival of responding officers, the victim was rushed to the Daanbantayan District Hospital. The attending physician, however, declared him dead on arrival.
The responding policemen also arrested the father on the scene and brought him to the Daanbantayan Police Station where he was detained.
They also recovered from him the claw hammer believed to have been used in the crime.
Mandal said that the suspect told police that he felt pity for his son and regretted what he did.
However, he is resigned to facing the consequences of his actions.
Mandal said that they were waiting for the decision of the victim’s family on whether they would be filing charges of parricide against the suspect.
Police arrested a man for allegedly hacking his son on Saturday night, December 30, in Barangay Butanyog here.Investigation said the suspect, Anacito, was drunk and barred by his wife to go on drinking.
Anacito was irked and the victim, who was at the house of his parents visiting, tried to pacify his father.
The suspect got a bolo and hacked his son several times in the body.
The victim was taken to the Bondoc Peninsula District Hospital in Catanauan, Quezon.
Anacito was arrested by responding policemen.
Suspect faces a frustrated homicide case.
He was only requested to turn off the lights of his hut, but his disrespectful response to his mother’s order ultimately led to his death.
The fatal shooting of a 28-year-old jobless man by his own father in Barangay Lahug, Cebu City on Monday night allegedly stemmed from months of constant misunderstandings.
This was according to Luisa Caballes, the mother of 28-year-old Kenn Pondar Caballes.
Her husband, Eugenio Bontilao Caballes, 63, is now in jail for shooting to death Kenn after an argument in their house in Brgy. Lahug, Cebu City late Monday evening, March 15.
In a live interview with Alan Domingo of Balitang Bisdak posted on his social media page, the mother narrated how it all began.
She said that at past 10:00 p.m. on Monday, she asked Kenn to turn off the lights in the hut he lived in when he went out to go to the bathroom.
The hut was located just outside the couple’s house.
Kenn, however, yelled at his mother which was heard by his father who was inside their house at that time.
Angered by this, the father went out to confront his son on why he was aggressively talking to his mother.
This led to a verbal fight between father and son while Luisa was telling her husband to just let it pass.
As the father was going back inside the house, Kenn allegedly went after him holding a wooden stick with a nail sticking on the end.
Kenn then allegedly struck his father in the neck which caused him to collapse on the ground with a wound on the area hit by the plank of wood.
Shorty after, the father stood up and went inside to retrieve his gun. Then the father shoots son in the head.
According to Luisa, her husband got on a motorcycle and went to a relative’s house.
Eugenio, however, reportedly called the police station to tell them that he will surrender shorty after.
While the suspect was brought to the Mabolo Police Station, Kenn was rushed to the Cebu City Medical Center where he eventually expired.
Luisa tearfully recalled how she was watching her son lying on the ground blooded that night.
She also also said that she was distraught with the death of her youngest son and the incarceration of her elderly husband.
She added that she believes her husband was only surprised by the attack and shot their son out of anger.
Luisa shared how her youngest son has always been problematic and that the father held a grudge against him for a long time.
She said she took care of her jobless son and that they provided for his sustenance.
However, Kenn would reportedly steal their chickens, cause trouble in their neighborhood, and talk back to his mother.
She also admitted that her son was a drunkard and used illegal drugs.
While she is unsure if Kenn was under the influence of drugs at the time, she said that she observed him being quiet and irratable before the incident.
Luisa further revealed that their family has decided not file charges against her husband as the latter was already old and had health problems.
As of this writing, Eugenio is detained at the custodial facility of the Mabolo Police Station pending the filing of parricide charges against him.
Meanwhile, Kenn’s cadaver has been brought to a funeral parlor in Cebu City.

An argument between a father and his only son led to a bloody fight and ended with one of them in a coffin while the other one in jail.
The eldest son of the Ugbaniel family from Brgy. Sta Cruz in Ronda town, southwestern Cebu lost his life in the hands of his own father on Friday, November 1.
Michael Ugbaniel, 29, was allegedly stabbed to death by his father, Moises, 52, during an argument inside their house.
The victim’s mother, Rosalia, said that she and Moises were arguing over money that they were going to use to pay their debt at around 7:00 a.m. on Friday.
She said that her husband began aggressively questioning whether her younger brother gave his own share.Despite her telling him yes, Moises began ranting that her brother was not contributing enough.
After hearing his father’s complaints, Michael joined the conversation and told his father off for badmouthing his uncle.
Rosalia said that her son told his father to stop talking bad about his mother’s younger brother, who had always been generous with their family.
During this, Michael grabbed a bolo nearby and held it in his hand to scare off his father, who allegedly had a tendency to get violent when angry.
Moises, angered by Michael’s attitude, also grabbed a large knife from another room.
Moises told CDN Digital that he needed the weapon to protect himself.
The two men continued arguing, with Moises not willing to back down against his son whom he always criticized for being unemployed and lazy.
Moises said that Michael grabbed a rock and threw it at him, hitting his arm.
Despite Michael dropping the bolo he was holding, Moises said that it felt like a trigger and he realized that his son was willing to kill him.
In a fit of anger, Moises tries to stab Michael who promptly ran out of the house.
Rosalia recalled seeing her son trip and Moises stabbing him on his side while on the ground.
She desperately ran after them while begging Michael to run. Her son, however, told her to stay away from them.
When she caught up with them, Rosalia shared that Moises tried to stab her too. However, he missed when she fell on the slippery rock that she was standing on.
The bleeding Michael was able to run for a few more meters before ultimately collapsing near a relative’s house.
Rosalia said that her nephew, Paul, arrived and managed to take the knife away from Moises. Their neighbors then held him down until authorities arrived.
Michael, who was rushed to the nearest hospital in the town, was hastily transferred to a hospital in Barili.
Unfortunately, he died before they reached the hospital.
Meanwhile, Moises was taken into custody by responding policemen. They also recovered the knife that he used in the crime.
As of this writing, he is detained at the Ronda Police Station while police are preparing to file parricide charges against him.
Rosalia is determined to lodge a complaint against her husband for killing Michael, whom she described as kind and obedient son.
She shared that Michael always watched over his six younger sisters while she was doing laundry to make money.
But because Michael was unemployed, he was always scrutinized by his father. Moises’ disdain against his oldest son grew when he would defend his mother during their fights.
Terrified of what else Moises could do, Rosalia said that she would be ending their marriage.
While inside his jail cell, Moises admitted that he had a strained relationship with Michael because the latter would talk back to him.
In spite of this, he said that Michael was still his child and that he felt regretful for causing his own son’s death.
Ronda is a fifth-class municipality located approximately 86 kilometers southwest of Cebu.
