A tragic family conflict pushed a 16-year-old boy from Mumbai to consume rat poison after reportedly being battered by his two aunts, a local police official from Bandra-Kurla Complex said on Sunday.

The distressing episode took place on Friday at the relatives' Dadar residence after the teenager refused to undertake a task assigned by his aunts. Faced with the conflict, he fled to his father's home in Bharat Nagar, Bandra, where he bought and ingested rat poison.

The boy, who is currently recovering at Bhabha Hospital, has had his father's testimony recorded, and the police have summoned the aunts for an investigation, informed Sub Inspector Rahul Chandanshiv.
