negativeTop Stories
A postgraduate medical student in Mangaluru, Chalasani Monica Choudary, got herself into serious trouble after allegedly faking a bomb threat to a private hospital—all because she wanted to skip a seminar presentation. Police say she even filed a complaint about the threat herself, but digital forensics quickly traced it back to her. Now she’s been arrested, and her phone’s been seized as evidence.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just a bizarre case of poor judgment—it’s a stark reminder of how impulsive actions, especially involving public safety threats, can spiral into legal nightmares. For a med student, the stakes are even higher, since trust and responsibility are core to the profession.
