The individual who committed this horrific act has been arrested by the Karnataka Police and is currently alive. Meanwhile, the injured person is receiving medical treatment at the hospital.

Shockingly, his own friend captured the incident on his mobile camera. The accused has been arrested after the video of the incident went viral. The accused, named Vijay, slit the throat of a person named Maresh and started drinking the spilled blood. Suspecting that his wife had an illicit relationship with Maresh, Vijay committed this sensational act.

It is reported that Vijay carried out this gruesome act out of anger over an alleged affair between Maresh and his wife. Fueled by his anger, Vijay summoned Maresh to the forest near Siddhepalli Cross in Chintamani Taluk. Upon Maresh's arrival, a heated argument ensued between the two, which escalated to the point where Vijay drew a knife and slit Maresh's throat. As Maresh fell to the ground, Vijay approached him and began drinking the blood flowing from his throat. Interestingly, Vijay's wife was also present during the incident, and he attacked her as well. However, she managed to escape from the assault.
