He lives in a room in the park with his wife Sonia and 5-year-old daughter Sudaksha. In this situation, last Sunday, Raghu went to Villupuram as one of his relatives died.
Meanwhile, yesterday evening a person named Pugahendi, who lives near the park, came to the park with 2 dogs that he keeps. Sudaksha, a 5-year-old girl who was playing in the park, was suddenly bitten by two dogs. Hearing the child’s cry, mother Sonia ran and tried to save the child. Then he was also bitten by dogs.
It is said that the owner of the dogs was praised and left the dogs there. Bystanders rescued the child who was seriously injured due to dog bites and sent him to Rajiv Gandhi Government General Hospital.
