Puttur: Failure to obey order - Man sets wife on fire, arrested

Daijiworld Media Network – Puttur (SP)

Puttur, Jul 9: In an incident which occurred at Kapinabagilu in Kaukrady village near Uppinangady in the taluk, a man allgedly poured kerosene on his wife and set her on fire for a trivial reason.

Roslyn (40), who suffered serious burn injuries in this incident, was admitted into a hospital in Mangalore. Her condition continues to be serious.

The incident occurred on Sunday July 7 morning. Roslyn’s husband, Bernard Monteiro, has been arrested by Uppinangady police.

Bernard had reportedly bought pork from butcher’s shop on Sunday morning. Immediately after reaching home, he insisted on preparation of dish by using pork. Monteiro got extremely angry after observing that his wife did not take the initiative to cook the pork at once as per his instructions.

In a complaint filed in Uppinangady police station, it has been explained that Bernard immediately rushed to the kitchen thereafter, poured kerosene stored in a plastic can there on his wife, and set her on fire.

    On a second thought- I eat pork only once a month because my Doctor said that I will become like a dukor if I eat it often.
    However, I find cooking pork is very simple and easy!
    Put all the ingredients in a pot,keep it on fire and then open the whiskey bottle.
    By the time I am almost sozzled, the Dukra maas is ready - with ready made sanna of course!
    I cannot understand the silly reason to burn ones own wife for this?

    For Christ's sake don't bring Christ into this !
    This honestly was one thing I could not come to terms with when I was young- Beautiful Girls eating "Dukraache Maas"!Khataa Go Thoon Dukraak 'Gaas'? I used to ask them sheepishly- Naa Naa Kaalyaak? Yethaagi Vaas? Some used to ask in return...while some indeed agreed that they ate it and it was very tasty!Great fun it was chiding them then!
    I remember a certain 'Terrifying Dolphy' who used to rear pigs near
    our house and they would invade the roads nearby in hundreds! Now you don't get to see them!'Pig robbers' are also lurking you see
    along with 'goat and cattle robbers'...Now streets are not safe even for pigs!!

    Sad news indeed!
    Setting own wife on fire for dukra maas!
    Almost all Christians in Mangalore like dukra maas & sanna on sundays!
    But setting his own wife on fire,Bernard will be eating kanji for a long time!No more dukra maas for a long time for him.

    Case will drag on for years. His lawyer will try his level best to defend him. For want of substantial evidence the accused will be acquitted not guilty. Loser is the poor wife. We have seen this happen in so many cases.

    Bernard, is this the promise you made to Roselyn when you got married to her? Its not because you proved pork dish more important than your wife. May God Bless Rosylen with a miraculous recovery.

    Mistress or wife ? Yes, if a person truly repents his sins and never commit it again, Jesus will forgive him. That is why He died on the cross, for the sins of others.

    His name is Bernard but it doesn’t mean that he has to “Burn” someone. How he can mistreat his own mistress? Now how he can bow his head in front of “Jesus” to ask for forgiveness? Oh God pls limit humans anger to such an extent that they will never harm others

    She was not his mistress. If she was, he would not have dared to order her to cook that meat immediately.
    However she tried like a mistress and got burnt.
    What a "DUKRAPPA" he is - idiot No.1

    What's so difficult to prepare a pork dish?Start cutting pork and keep 2 pegs beside and the dish is automatically done.

    One thing for sure, he must have had too much booze and thought of enjoying pork. Satanic man.

    He should be punished appropriately.

    This is height of madness.
    Is the life of his own wife is cheaper than dish.
    Some times it makes me doubt myself, is it really true that we have these type of people in our locality.

    If you have no control over your anger, what is the use of going to Church or pretending to be follower of Christ ?

    There is all possibility.

    I often laugh when Konglish speaking children ask 'whether we are going for Konkani-mass or English-mass'. A reply ready is Dukra-mass.

    @ Lydia, if one eats meat and takes liquor he or she will not be a normal but rude and arrogant like animal.Beef and Pork are the choices of carnivores and not human living in cold countries but not for our climate conditions.
    Eat green vegetables and live healthy.
