A 32-year-old man was arrested for allegedly biting off his father’s nose during a scuffle on Tuesday in Odisha. According to police, the accused identified as Bibhuti Samal alias Mantu, a resident of Routarapur village in Jajpur district, arrived home on Monday night in an inebriated state and started hurling abuses at his neighbours.
When his father Shatrughan intervened, the accused beat his father and bit off his nose. On hearing Shatrughan’s screams for help, two of his neighbours tried to save him and put an end to the fight, but, Bibhuti attacked them also, police added.
Upon being informed, Jajpur Road police arrived at the site of the incident and arrested Bibhuti. The injured persons were admitted to Jajpur Road Community Health Centre (CHC) for treatment.
Based on a complaint by Shatrughan, police registered a case against Bibhuti under relevant sections of IPC.
He was produced in a local court on Tuesday and was sent to judicial custody after his bail plea was rejected, said Jajpur Road police station IIC Upendra Kumar Pradhan.
In September 2023, a 45-year-old man fatally attacked his 75-year-old father with an iron rod when the latter refused him money for liquor in Nagpur.
The incident occurred when the accused, Amit, who works as a driver, returned home in an inebriated condition and demanded money from his wife and his father to buy liquor. When they refused, he started beating his wife and when his father tried to save her, Amit attacked him with an iron walking stick.
