MIRI: Police here have arrested a 32-year-old man for hitting his mother hard on the head twice just because she advised him to keep their house in Permyjaya clean and tidy.
The alleged incident took place at his mother’s home in Piasau on Tuesday around 4.30pm.
Prior to the attack, the man had just arrived at his mother’s home to grab some food.
