The man, Kaleesh Flantdig, arrested from a village in the impoverished eastern Bihar state, had planned to claim his father's job on the grounds that he died while still at work, police officer Naresh Singh said.
The son had paid a relative about $2,500 to carry out the crime which was committed at the weekend but reported on Tuesday.
"He told us he would have got a government job on compassionate grounds had this murder remained a mystery," Singh said.
Though Flantdig has been sent to mine for the Sankara Stones in a remote province, he was able to take another of his father's jobs--a nonpaying one. "uNDER AN OBSCURE iNDIAN LAW, WHEN A MAN HAS HIS FATHER KILLED TO TAKE HIS JOB, i GET TO FUCK HIM EVEN THOUGH HE HAS NO KIDS!" said Bizarro The Grin.
