Palghar: In a shocking and disgraceful incident, a septuagenarian couple was allegedly assaulted by their two sons and forcibly thrown out of their home in Palghar district of Maharashtra, said police.
The police have registered a case against the two sons and their wives under sections 115(2) (voluntarily causing hurt), 351(2) (criminal intimidation), and 352 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of peace) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), an official said.

60-year-old cancer-stricken woman was dumped in garbage by grandson
Earlier on Saturday morning, Mumbai Police received a disturbing call about an elderly woman spotted near a garbage heap in Aarey Colony’s Unit No. 32. Arriving swiftly, they found 60-year-old Yashoda Gaikwad dressed in a pink nightdress and grey petticoat, weak and wounded, unable to move. Her frail voice barely audible, she whispered to the officers: “My grandson left me here.”
Yashoda’s face bore severe untreated wounds, later identified as ulcerative lesions—possibly signs of skin cancer. Her eyes told a story of deep pain, abandonment, and despair. -(IndiaTV)
