In a bizarre incident, an argument over a mere Rs 50 allegedly led to a man biting off a shopkeeper’s finger when he refused to sell a frock at his desired price. The case was reported in Uttar Pradesh’s Banda.
According to an India Today report, the altercation unfolded when the shopkeeper, Shivchandra Karwaria, who runs a clothing store, sold a frock to a customer.
The next day, the customer returned to the shopkeeper, claiming that the frock was too small and demanded a larger size. However, things went south when the shopkeeper told him that he would have to pay another Rs 50 for a larger frock.
The man refused to pay an additional amount and began to argue with the shopkeeper. Soon, the refusal turned into an intense altercation and the man then allegedly bit off the top finger of Karwaria’s left hand. He also injured his son by biting him as well, the publication reported.
After the clash, the accused threw the shopkeeper’s clothes onto the road and threatened him before fleeing the scene.
The shopkeeper, who had sustained injuries, subsequently went to the nearby police station and filed a complaint against the accused.
The Station House Officer (SHO) at Kotwali Naraini, Suresh Saini, informed the publication that a case had been registered based on the shopkeeper’s complaint.
The SHO stated that the police were currently searching for the accused and legal action would be taken against him once he was apprehended.
In a similar incident, a man allegedly bit off his wife’s finger during a domestic dispute after accusing her of having an affair in Gujarat’s Ahmedabad. Bleeding severely, she rushed out of her house screaming for help while the husband stayed put in the house.
In her complaint, the woman said her husband often beat her over trivial issues and always suspected her of having an affair.
