Jamshedpur: Shop-owner stabs customer for paying Rs.15-bill with Rs.500 note

What's the story

Not having change on him nearly turned out fatal for a Jamshedpur man.

Bhagat Mahato bought a bar of chocolate costing Rs. 15 from Dwarika Singh, a betel nut shop owner, for his children.

But since he didn't have change, he gave Singh a Rs. 500 note.

An enraged Singh ended up stabbing Mahato, who is now recuperating in hospital.

Details

What happened?

Mahato, an autorickshaw driver, visited Singh's shop at 6:30am to buy chocolate. Since he had only Rs. 10 and Rs. 500, he gave Singh the latter.

When Singh refused, Mahato offered other solutions: he could pay the remaining Rs. 5 later, he said, or if Singh wanted, he would return the chocolate.

But Singh started abusing him for disturbing work at an auspicious time.

Singh is short-tempered, business is also down: Neighbor explains

It eventually resulted in a scuffle. An angry Singh suddenly attacked Mahato and stabbed him.

He was soon nabbed and sent to jail, police said. Mahato is undergoing treatment at the Tata Motors Hospital.

A neighboring shop-owner explained the situation: "Singh is short-tempered. Business is also down. There's problem in accepting Rs. 500/2000s note for such paltry bills. This might have triggered his outrage."

Done!
