In Karnataka, a man has been accused of attempting to murder his wife by mixing rat poison and powdered bangle pieces into a soft drink, which he allegedly presented as temple prasad.
A disturbing incident has come to light in Marakumbi village, Karnataka, where a husband is alleged to have attempted to kill his wife. According to initial police investigations, the accused, identified as Santosh, took his wife to the Chamundeshwari Temple.
On their return journey from the temple, Santosh reportedly mixed rat poison and powdered pieces of bangles into a soft drink. He then offered this concoction to his wife, claiming it was 'prasad' from the temple. The preliminary findings suggest a premeditated attempt on her life.
Authorities are currently investigating the matter further. The use of rat poison and bangle fragments indicates a particularly sinister method allegedly employed in the purported crime.
