Ryota Satake, 12, was reportedly stabbed in the chest with a kitchen knife by his father because he didn't study for a school entrance exam in Japan's Aichi prefecture.
His dad, 48-year-old Kengo told police he “ argued with his son for not studying” for a test at the private school.
A spokesman said the father stabbed his son in the chest with a kitchen knife, reports Russia Today .
Ryota died of blood loss from the stabbing, despite being rushed to hospital police said.
Satake was arrested after hospital staff informed authorities about the attack.
According to people who know the family, he was often scolded by his father over his studies.
Pressure for children to attend top schools can be intense in Japan, where is is seen as a sign of prestige.
Disgusting
This reinforces those negative Stereotypes too
I mean the stereotype about parents putting an insane amount of pressure on their children to succeed in Japan/East Asia is just the reality, its not really just a stereotype.
R.I.P. Such a stupid reason to kill somebody, especially your own SON
I know this might sound insensitive but I already knew they would be Asian after reading the title.
