Weeks after a 9-year-old boy was starved to death in Morrisiville, his father has joined the boy’s mother in facing criminal charges.

Warrants obtained by The News & Observer show Shashikant Tiwari, 40, has been arrested and charged with felony child abuse in his son’s death.

Vinil Tiwari was found unconscious in his home on Dec. 20. Emergency Medical Services workers performed CPR on the boy but quickly determined he was dead — and had been for some time.

Morrisville police said signs of decomposition were visible on the boy’s body.

The next day, Priyanka Tiwari, was arrested and charged with felony child abuse and murder in her son’s death.

Shashikant Tiwari’s arrest warrant alleges he “failed to care for his own child and left the child in his mother’s care who he knew was in mental decline.”

According to police records, Morrisville police were called to the Tiwari home eight times in 2023. The records show that four of those calls were “welfare checks.”

It is unclear if police ever saw the boy during these welfare checks.

Weeks before Shashikant’s arrest, an N&O reporter contacted him.

“This is a very difficult time for me and my family, and I am not able to speak on this for now,” he said in an email.
