UP man beaten up by wife, her family over not getting samosas in Pilibhit, video goes viral
According to police, an FIR has been filed against four accused under several charges including attempt to murder.
In a bizarre incident, a man was allegedly thrashed by his wife and her family over his failure to bring home samosas in Uttar Pradesh’s Pilibhit, leading to an attempt to murder case against them.
Shivam, a resident of Anandpur village in Uttar Pradesh, got married to Sangeeta earlier this year. Last week on August 30, Sangeeta had asked Shivam to bring samosas, however, he failed to do so, said police citing the complaint filed by the man’s mother.
Riled over this, Sangeeta allegedly asked her family to come to her in-laws’ home and also called for a panchayat on August 31. During the panchayat, the wife’s family reportedly beat up Shivam and his family.
A video of the bizarre incident has recently emerged and gone viral on social media, showing the two sides engaging in a violent confrontation amid screams and cries as some people try to calm the situation down.
Following this, Shivam’s mother, Vijay Kumari filed a complaint against Sangeeta and her family. The police said that a case has been filed against four accused under several charges including attempt to murder.
