Kottayam (Kerala), June 22 (IANS): A 25-year-old man was Sunday arrested in Kerala on charges of raping his mother, police said.

The head of the family works as a casual labourer and is reported to be an alcoholic.
The accused - who at times used to work in a hotel at Pala - has confessed to the crime, he said.
