The country is currently observing nation-wide lockdown which has been extended until May 3 and ever since there have been bizarre stories doing rounds from Bihar.

In one such incident, a man was so angry with his wife after she got stuck up in the lockdown at her parents’ place, that he decided to marry his ex-flame.

The incident took place at Bihar’s Paliganj where a local Dheeraj Kumar stayed with his wife. Before the lockdown was announced last month, Dheeraj’s wife went to her parents’ place at Dulhin Bazar. But she got stuck up there as the movement of vehicles was restricted.

Dheeraj called her up to return somehow but the woman couldn’t do so and the recently extended added to their woes, the couple’ relationship became bitter.

Dheeraj, in the meantime, got so angry that he decided to marry his ex-flame. As soon as his wife came to know about his second marriage, she, instead of suffering in silence, rushed to the nearby police station and lodged an FIR against her husband charging him with infidelity.

On Thursday, the Dulhin Bazar police asked Dheeraj to come to the police station. After verifying the facts, the husband was arrested.
