LUCKNOW: In an extraordinary incident, a man in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh bit off a snake’s head in an act of revenge, reported the Times of India.
The man, identified as Sonelal and a resident of Hardoi disctrict, claimed that the snake bit him which led him to chewing its head in anger before spitting it out.
The farmer then fell unconscious and was rushed to a community health care. However, doctors did not find any snake bites on him.
According to Sonelal, he was grazing his cattle when the animal got hold of him.
“The man’s neighbours Ram Sewak and Ram Swaroop claimed that Sonelal had been bitten by a snake. So, we started looking for bite marks but could not find any,” said pharmacist Hitesh Kumar.
The attending doctor Mahendra Verma added. “Sonelal turned unconscious because of consuming the snake’s body part which may have contained venom, assuming it was a poisonous snake.”
Meanwhile, locals claimed that the farmer was addicted to drugs.
