Attacking After Spoilers
A 29-year-old software engineer and his wife were watching a movie on Tuesday night when a man behind them started telling his wife the story, according to a complaint filed with the Chinchwad police. The accused allegedly grew angry and punched the man after the complainant urged him to stop during the break. The victim’s wife was also attacked when she tried to intervene.
