Bijnor, Uttar Pradesh, August 22, 2025 – A quiet household in Bijnor district turned upside down today when a hidden camera exposed a horrifying secret. For nearly ten years, a trusted maid had been secretly urinating in a glass and sprinkling it over clean kitchen utensils, contaminating the food served to her employer’s family. The 55-year-old woman, named Samantra, was arrested by local police after the disturbing video went viral on social media, sparking widespread outrage and disbelief among residents.
The businessman, Satyam Mittal, who runs a local enterprise, had employed Samantra for over a decade. She was seen as reliable and part of the family, handling daily chores like washing dishes and preparing meals. But recently, Mittal noticed odd behavior from her, prompting him to install a discreet CCTV camera in the kitchen. What the footage captured was beyond imagination, Samantra urinating into a glass after washing the dishes, then using the liquid to “rinse” the utensils before storing them away. Mittal immediately filed a complaint at the Nagina police station, leading to her swift detention.
Police officials confirmed that Samantra has been charged under sections related to disturbing public peace and endangering health. She was presented in court earlier today and remanded to judicial custody as investigations continue. Authorities are probing her motives, but so far, she has not provided any clear explanation. Some locals speculate it could stem from a personal grudge or even a mental health issue, while others call it a deliberate act of malice. “This is disgusting and unforgivable,” said a neighbor who saw the video. “How could someone do this for so long without remorse?”
The family is now grappling with the emotional and potential health fallout. Mittal shared that they feel betrayed and worried about long-term effects from consuming contaminated food unknowingly. Doctors have advised them to undergo medical check-ups, though no immediate illnesses have been reported. This case echoes similar incidents in Uttar Pradesh, like one in Ghaziabad where a maid mixed urine into dough, highlighting growing concerns over household help trustworthiness.
As the video spreads rapidly online, social media users are demanding stricter background checks for domestic workers. Police have urged the public to avoid sharing unverified clips to prevent misinformation. Updates from the investigation are expected soon. For now, this shocking revelation serves as a stark reminder of hidden dangers in everyday life.
