Rameshwaram Cafe Faces Legal Action Over Worm in Food
A young man named Nikhil N found a worm in his food at Rameshwaram Cafe in Bengaluru airport.
He complained to the staff and left without making a scene.
The next day, he found out that the cafe had filed a complaint against him, saying he demanded ₹25 lakh and threatened their brand.
Nikhil said this was false and that he was already on his flight when the cafe claimed he was making demands.
He then filed a counter-complaint, saying the cafe served unsafe food and tried to defame him.
The police are now investigating both complaints.
