In a video that is being circulated in social media, the child is seen pleading with his father to stop assaulting him even as the man keeps on brutally thrashing him. Another child is also heard pleading with him to stop, but Ghante goes on to beat the child even after the stick breaks and the child tries to hide under the bed. The video was reportedly shot by a neighbor, who alerted the police as well.

“The man was in an inebriated condition. The child, aged around eight years, was shifted to hospital and a case has been booked against Ghante,” Chatrinaka Inspector Abdul Khader Jilani said.
