What could make a woman cut and eat her own child must be something beyond alcoholism as this post has attributed it to. It must be associated with the disease of the mind. Or can alcoholism induce one into cannibalistic tendencies? Pramila, 40 has been reportedly arrested by Indian Police for cutting and eating the scalp of her two-year-old baby, Bharati Mondal. Scoop has more:
According to Daily mail, the toddler was rescued by her uncle Dablu after he heard her screams and was horrified to find his sister-in-law cutting her head and eaten her flesh. He snatched her away and rushed her to a local hospital where she was treated for injuries at a critical care unit.Dablu said; ‘It was around noon and I was resting at home when I heard loud cries of Bharati, ’I ran to check on her but there the scene I saw was beyond shocking Bharati was bleeding profusely as Pramila was eating the flesh of her head. I immediately snatched away Bharati from Pramila and rushed her to Malda Medical College and Hospital where she is admitted to ICU.’As the news of the grisly attack spread, angry locals gathered at her house, tied her with ropes and started beating her. She was only saved when sister-in-law Mamta Mandal, 36, called the police who dispersed the angry mob. The mother of three, who has an alcohol problem, confessed to the mob but was unable to explain her actions. Police inspector Kishna Das said Dablu Mondal, who lived next door to Pramila, was alerted by the child’s screams on Wednesday.‘He there saw Pramila eating the flesh of Bharati’s head. Soon villagers learnt about the incident and reached Pramila’s house and started beating her in anger. ‘We rescued the woman and sent her to hospital.’ Pramila’s husband Habu Mondal, went to Delhi to work to work as a laborer last year but has not been seen since. The couple has two other children Parbati, eight, and son Swarna, two. Police have prepared a case against Pramila who is expected to appear in court soon, police said.
