According to police, a FIR has been filed against the woman in response to the complaint under Section 324 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), which deals with “voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means.” More investigation is being conducted into the incident.
“I went to throw garbage outside my house around 9.20 am on November 20. I asked my wife to clean the house. Soon after I returned home, my wife started fighting with me over an unknown issue,” the complainant told the police.
He added to the police report that his wife had asked him to sell the property and give her the proceeds so she could live apart with the kids.
“I tried to make her understand, but a verbal spat ensued. She even tried to hit me, but I pushed her away. I was walking out of the house when she held me from back and in a fit of rage bit my right ear so hard that the upper portion of my ear got dismembered. My son took me to Sanjay Gandhi Hospital in Mangolpuri for treatment,” the victim told the police and added that he had to undergo surgery at Jaipur Golden Hospital in Rohini.
