What she thought was a good idea to prevent theft, has landed a grocery shop owner from Nalasopara in a legal mess, as it led to the death of a teenager. The woman would connect a live wire to the grille in the window of her shop every night when she shut it down. The Tulinj police booked her on March 1.
The incident dates back to January 25 when the 18-year-old boy was found apparently lying unconscious and when his mother touched his body, she was jolted with an electric shock that alarmed cops to conduct a thorough probe into the matter.
