JAIPUR: In a fit of rage, a man bit the lips, nose and cheeks of his five-month-old daughter following a fight with his wife in Bikaner's Kolayat area on Thursday night. The girl has been referred to a hospital in Jaipur after her condition turned serious while her father has been arrested.
According to the police, the brutal act took place in Siyani village under Kolayat police station area. Bahadur Singh (36) reached home in an inebriated condition. His wife Santosh Devi and sister-in-law Saroj Devi were applying henna (mehendi) on their hands.
"Singh asked his wife to do some work, but she refused as she had applied henna on her hands. At this, an angry Bahadur started abusing his wife. When she protested and called neighbours to intervene, he started beating her up," a police officer said.
Hearing her mother's cries, the couple's elder daughter Bhanwari (3) came out of the adjoining room and started weeping. Bahadur didn't spare her too and thrashed her.
"The younger daughter Radha woke up and started crying. This infuriated him further and he bit her lips, nose and cheeks. By then, some neighbours reached the house and reported the matter to the police," the officer said.
A case has been registered against the father under sections 326, 341, 323, 324 of the IPC. The officer said that Bahadur was a trucker. Following an accident where he lost aAAn arm, Bahadur left the job and worked as an agricultural labourer.
Expressing shock at the incident, district collector Arti Dogra said "All possible financial assistance will be provided for the child's treatment."
