Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): A shocking incident unfolded in Madhya Pradesh's Bhopal, where a 22-year-old woman’s nose was chopped off by her relative in a one-sided love affair.
The accused attacked the young woman for refusing marriage while she was returning home under Gandhi Nagar police station limits on Thursday evening.
Police officials said the accused Dinesh Jatav had been pressurising the victim, his relative to marry him for a long time. The woman consistently refused his advances. On Thursday while the victim was returning home, Dinesh intercepted her near Aero City Park on his scooter.
He once again tried to convince her for marriage but when she denied an argument broke out. Enraged, Dinesh reportedly told her, “If you won’t marry me, you won’t marry anyone.” He then pulled out a knife from his scooter’s dickey and slashed the young woman’s nose.
