A dad is accused of battering his six-year-old son into a coma because he didn't do his homework, leaving the boy fighting for his life in hospital.
The dad, named only as Mehmet Ali Y, allegedly used a metal pipe from a vacuum cleaner to assault the youngster, named as Mertcan Y, said police.
Neighbours raised the alarm after they found the boy unconscious and badly injured after he was beaten at his family's home in Iskenderun, Turkey.
The boy was rushed by ambulance to hospital, where he was taken into intensive care with severe injuries to his head and face.
