Man Throws Cobra into Wife and Daughter's Bedroom to Collect Insurance Money

A resident of India has thrown a venomous snake into the bedroom of his wife and daughter in an attempt to secure insurance payout, but doctors were unable to save the victims from the cobra's bite. The incident was reported by News9Live.

The event took place in Odisha, where the woman and her two-year-old daughter were found in their bedroom after being bitten by the snake, while a cobra was discovered in the room. The girl and her mother were rushed to the hospital, but the doctors could not save their lives.

Family members suspected that the head of the household had decided to settle accounts with his wife and daughter in hopes of receiving 400 rupees from the state in insurance money. During the investigation, it was revealed that no one heard the screams of the mother and child, and after the attack, the cobra behaved unusually and remained in the room.

Traces of narcotic substances were found in the victims' blood. The father of the family has been detained and confessed to purchasing the snake from the market and releasing it in the room where his wife and daughter were sleeping.
