Kolkata: The man, who got arrested on Wednesday for slapping his own father, got bail after his father appealed before the magistrate. On Thursday, the accused Pradip Biswas was produced before Barasat Court.
When the magistrate was hearing the matter, surprisingly Pradip's father Maniklal stood up appealed to the magistrate if he could grant his son bail. He also stated that he did wrong by offering sweets to his wife.
The magistrate later granted Pradip bail. Replying to the questions by the media persons, Maniklal said: "He is my only son. Though he did wrong, he will not do it again. If he does not get bail, then I will commit suicide."
On Friday, Pradip repeatedly slapped Maniklal for giving a bite of sweet to his wife.
Pradip became furious on seeing his father offering sweets to his mother as she has high blood sugar and needs to refrain from sweets. He immediately dragged his father out of the room and started slapping him.
A neighbour of Pradip heard loud screams and sneaked over the wall and saw him slapping his father.
He made a video and posted it on Facebook. As it went viral, someone tagged Kolkata Police. Kolkata Police later informed Barasat District Police and Pradip got arrested.
