India. At a liquor shop on Karad Road, miscreants on a motorcycle attempted to burn a salesman, K. Singh, 50, alive. The accused threw a petrol bottle at the salesman, setting him on fire.

The salesman suffered severe burns. The accused fled the scene after committing the crime. The injured man was initially taken to a local hospital, where he was later referred to a specialized burns unit at Sawai Man Singh Hospital.

He sustained severe, life-threatening burn injuries across 45% to 50% of his body.

While police initially investigated whether the attack was fueled by an old rivalry, Singh explicitly stated from his hospital bed that he has no personal disputes or ongoing enmity with anyone.

"I was standing at the counter when I was suddenly attacked," he said.

He claimed that the attacker belongs to a nearby village and asserted that he had no personal enmity with anyone.

The injured salesman also claimed to have identified the accused who allegedly poured petrol on him and set him on fire.
