The Dreaded Dacoit
Ganga Prasad is a dreaded dacoit and his fear is not limited to snakes alone. For many years, Ganga Prasad has been synonymous with the word terror and fear in Fatehpur.
The history sheeter is said to have served long years in the jail. However, that did not diminish his penchant for the eccentric and scary one bit, as evident in his snake-eating video.
Dacoit Ganga Prasad is an active member of the Shankar Kevat gang in the area which is infamous for its acts of loot and intimidation. This particular video is said to be from Kishanpur Thana's Kalka Ka Dera.
In the video, it is seen that the dacoit reaches the river and at first it appears that he is trying to collect some water in his palm. However, he snatches a snake from the river and then utters some gibberish.
He soon bites off the snakes' head and then chews it apart, shows the video even as those recording the clip on the phone question him as to what he was upto. He soon toys with the snake and ties it around his fist before walking off, shows the video.
