Karnataka Man Brutally Attacks A Nurse
The attacker, identified as Prakash Jadhav, was seen entering the hospital with a machete concealed in his bag. In the video, Jadhav approaches the reception area, grabs the nurse, and assaults her with the weapon. Police investigations revealed that Jadhav, a neighbor of the victim, had been persistently harassing her after she repeatedly rejected his romantic advances and marriage proposals.
Jadhav had even approached the nurse’s father with a marriage proposal, which was also declined. Reports suggest that the continued harassment took a toll on the father’s health, ultimately leading to his demise.
The injured nurse was treated at the same hospital where the attack took place. Authorities have arrested Jadhav and filed charges against him. A senior police officer confirmed, “The suspect has been taken into custody, and further investigations are underway.”
This incident has sparked widespread outrage on social media, drawing attention to the increasing concerns about women’s safety and the prevalence of harassment and violence.
