Lucknow, March 29

A dispute over seating arrangement on a UP Roadways bus took an ugly turn when the driver and conductor bit the ear and finger of a passenger.

Kuldeep Kumar of Sidhauli in Sitapur lost a portion of his left hand's little finger, part of ear, a gold chain and Rs 19,600 in the incident on Thursday.

“I boarded the bus going to Biswan in Sitapur from Kaiserbagh bus station, Lucknow. The conductor asked me to take another seat. When I asked the reason, he instructed me to get off the bus. This snowballed into a verbal spat. Later, the driver and their aides started beating me. One of them then bit my ears. The outer layer of the ear got severed. They also bit my little finger on my left hand and other body parts. My gold chain and Rs 19,600 that I was carrying were also looted,” he alleged.

The passenger somehow managed to flee the scene and save his life.

Wazirganj SHO Dinesh Mishra said driver Sharan Mishra and conductor Mohammed Riyaz had been arrested.

The UPSRTC has also taken cognisance of the incident and issued a notice to the two.
