Sindhudurg police have charged a man named Satish with attempted murder and illegal confinement after his wife, Lalita Kayi Kumar, was found chained to a tree in a jungle for around 40 days. A shepherd alerted the police after hearing her screams. Lalita, a US national, is recovering in a Goa hospital. In written notes to the police, she revealed, "Husband tied me to a tree in the forest and said I would die there." Police are investigating and have traveled out of state for further inquiries. Lalita had been living with her husband in Tamil Nadu for a decade.
