In the most unbecoming of circumstances, a domestic helper took out her revenge on the family she was working for by doing the unthinkable. 

Reena Kumar, a domestic helper who was working with a family for eight years, took things to an extreme level when she allegedly began using urine to prepare meals for the family she worked for. 

The businessman, Kumar's employer, was concerned after noticing unexplainable health matters amongst his family. The family were experiencing liver issues and, despite seeking out medical attention, were not showing any sign of improvement.

After the revelations of the video footage, the businessman filed a complaint with the police and an investigation and apprehension occurred. 

The Assistant Commissioner of Police said: "She told us that she was upset about the frequent criticisms regarding her work, and the family would sometimes also rebuke her for mistakes. She said she was upset with this and committed the act as revenge. So far, we have not seen any such act being done at any other house where she is employed." (Hindustan Times)

The businessman's wife shared that the domestic helper, Reena, had been working for them for eight years, but over the last couple of months, her family were experiencing health issues. She said that the video showed that she had used the urine to prepare Chapattis for the family.
