A man allegedly under the influence of alcohol climbed atop a 100-foot mobile phone tower in Maharashtra’s Jalna district seeking that his wife return home from her parent’s place, a police official said on Thursday. The incident took place in Dabhadi village in Badnapur tehsil on Wednesday and the man, identified as Ganpat Bakal, came down only after an assurance from villagers, fire brigade and police personnel that they would strive to solve the domestic dispute, he added.
“He was under the influence of alcohol. He came down from the tower after four hours. Bakal was detained and then released later,” he said.
Eyewitnesses said the scene reminded them of the legendary drunken act by Dharmendra’s character in the 1970s blockbuster ‘Sholay’.
In an unusual incident, two men approached Bharosa cell in Nagpur to bring their wife back. As reported by Times of India, the men said that the woman had run away with a third man who she met on social media. The woman has gone untraceable from her second husband’s home after she said that she was visiting her native place. The TOI report said that the woman started seeing her second husband after she received a ‘missed call’ from him. They tied the knot in a temple. The second ‘husband’ now wants to team up with the first one to bring her back, but the first one does not want anything to do with her.
The complainants said that the woman married her first husband, a mason, after falling in love with him. However, after four years of marriage and bearing two children, she started seeing the second man, who is involved in laying optic fibre. Since Bharosa Cell provides counselling to women, children and the elderly, the men were directed to lodge a complaint at Sonegaon police station.
