A 35-year-old employee at a Mumbai bank has been charged with attempted murder after a dispute over a delayed medicine delivery escalated into violence, according to police reports.
Saurabh Kumar, who reportedly suffers from insomnia, ordered medicine late Friday night, and became agitated when the delivery was delayed. The conflict intensified early Saturday, leading Kumar to lock himself inside his flat, refusing the delivery.
In an escalation, Kumar fired an air gun, though it was not loaded, prompting law enforcement to intervene. Despite no one suffering injuries, Kumar faces serious charges under the Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita and the Arms Act as investigations continue.
