The question

In a country that does not rule by the Book of Allah and has no Sharia judge, is it obligatory for the sons to kill their father, who is accused of sodomy—and who admitted that he is the one speaking in the audio recording attributed to him—knowing that he has been married and a gambler for 20 years without stopping or repenting, that his treatment of his children is bad, and that he has acted as a pimp between a male and female fornicator?

The answer

If a man commits an indecency, his children are obligated to conceal his sin and strive for his guidance. The implementation of punishment is not within the authority of individuals, but rather within the authority of the Imam and his deputies.
