Mobile Tower Drama: Man Threatens Suicide After Family Conflict in Jharkhand

A man in Gumla, Jharkhand, created a major disturbance by climbing a mobile tower and threatening to jump. The incident, lasting over three hours, was a result of a property dispute with his father and brother. The man, Ritesh Kumar Singh, ascended a tower more than 100 feet high. Police were called to the scene, and extensive efforts were made to convince him to come down. The situation ended when he was successfully brought down, though he was slightly injured. Prior to the incident, the man, who has a history of substance abuse, had a physical altercation with his wife. This incident bears a resemblance to a scene in the film ‘Sholay’.
