A 17-year-old teenager in Kerala attempted to sodomize a nine-year-old boy after watching the act in a porn video, but when the latter resisted, the teen killed him and then allegedly performed sex on the dead body. 

The teenager, a Class 11 student, had taken the Class 3 boy of his school in Vizhinjam in Thiruvananthapuram district to a secluded spot and tried to sodomize him, The Times of India reported. 

The 17-year-old reportedly wanted to re-enact a scene from a porn video that he had watched on his mobile phone. 

But when the boy resisted, the teenager killed him by hitting him on his head with an empty liquor bottle, and even stomping on his head. 

"Post mortem results prove that the boy was subjected to sexual exploitation, sodomy to be precise after death. He (the teen) was well aware before the act of sodomy that the boy was dead," a Vizhinjam police official told The News Minute

The police have said that they are now investigating if the teenager is a necrophile and if he has committed similar acts before.
