Viral video: Ghaziabad maid caught adulterating food with urine and arrested

A disturbing incident has emerged in a residential society in Ghaziabad where a maid was arrested for allegedly mixing urine into batter meant for making rotis. The accused, identified as 32-year-old Reena, had been working for the family of a local businessman for eight years.

The discovery came to light when a businessman, concerned about his family’s unexplained health problems, decided to install a surveillance camera in the kitchen. The footage captured the maid, identified as Reena, from Shanti Nagar, urinating in pans and using the contaminated water to prepare meals.

She was reportedly caught on camera contaminating her employer’s food with urine. The disturbing revelation emerged after the businessman, worried about his family’s deteriorating health, opted for hidden surveillance in the kitchen.

The family had been suffering from unexplained liver problems for several days and, despite seeking medical assistance, their condition did not improve. This led the businessman to delve deeper into the subject.

The recorded footage, taken on Monday, showed the Shanti Nagar maid urinating in kitchen containers and later using the contaminated water to prepare the family’s meals.

Based on this incriminating evidence, the Gautam family lodged a complaint with the authorities, which led to Reena’s subsequent arrest. Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Lipi Nagaich of Wave City reported that during initial interrogation, the maid denied the allegations.

However, when confronted with the footage, she admitted to the act of tampering, claiming that her actions were motivated by a desire for revenge following frequent reprimands from her employer for minor mistakes.

Reena has been charged under Section 272 of the Indian Penal Code for adulterating food or drink, a serious offense that has the potential to endanger public health.
