Three women and two children were killed in a village in the Indian state of Bihar when they were attacked by an axe-wielding family member who is believed to be mentally challenged, police said Thursday.
The incident took place late Wednesday in Bihjadi village in Vaishali district when Sunil Giri used an axe against his family. While three people were killed on the spot, two succumbed to their injuries Thursday at the Patna Medical College and Hospital here.
Hundreds of shocked people from neighbouring villages thronged Bihjadi following the incident.
The accused has absconded after the incident, but police is on a hot chase.
what a great lost, i think mental retarded people should be taking care of in a mental institution by the government while families should see this as a lesson for keeping such people around them. mental cases should be reported at all time to the right authority.
