Overview

  • The couple from Mantaraghatta village in Channagiri taluk clashed on July 8 over nonpayment of a loan Vijay had guaranteed.
  • During the altercation, Vijay severed the front portion of wife Vidya’s nose by biting her as she fell to the ground.
  • Neighbors took Vidya first to Meggan Hospital in Shivamogga before she was transferred to a private facility for advanced reconstructive care.
  • Vidya filed a complaint that led Jayanagar Police Station to register a medico-legal case and FIR, which authorities later shifted to Channagiri Police Station in Davanagere.
  • Police are investigating the case while Vidya remains stable in hospital, and the assault echoes recent nose-biting attacks in India’s domestic and local disputes.
