Crime of Oedipus and Orestes (9)

I believe the answer is:

parricide

(Other definitions for parricide that I've seen before include "Person who murders a parent" , "Murder" , "The killing of one's own parent" , "Person who kills parent" , "Description of Oedipus" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
