Deadly Prank in Madhya Pradesh: Man Mistakes Explosive for Rasgulla, Dies After It Blows Up in His Mouth

A dangerous prank between two friends turned fatal in Madhya Pradesh’s Dindori district after a 35-year-old man died when a country-made explosive, resembling a rasgulla, detonated inside his mouth. Police have registered a case against the friend accused of giving him the explosive as a joke.
 

According to police officials, the incident took place on November 10 at around 8 pm. Kotwali police station in-charge Durga Prasad Nagpure shared details of the incident with reporters on Friday.
 

The deceased, identified as Rajinder, was reportedly given a country-made bomb by his friend, Rambhagat, who allegedly presented it as a prank. The explosive reportedly looked similar to the popular Indian sweet, rasgulla.
 

Believing it to be a sweet, Rajinder put the object in his mouth and bit into it. However, it exploded with a powerful blast, leaving him seriously injured.
 

He was immediately taken to the district hospital for medical treatment. However, he succumbed to his injuries.
 

During police questioning, the accused, Rambhagat, reportedly told investigators that a man named Dharmu had supplied him with the country-made explosive.
 

Police said a case has been registered against Rambhagat under relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Explosives Act. Further investigation and legal proceedings are underway
