The tattoo shop owners have been identified as S Hariharan, 24, a native of Chinthamani and his friend V Jayaraman, 24, a resident of Koothaippar.
Police have arrested two men for running an unlicensed tattoo parlour in Tamil Nadu's Trichy and allegedly performing a tongue-splitting procedure on a youngster without any safety equipment or medical training. The cops took action against the duo after they shared videos on social media, promoting the dangerous operation. Officials sealed their unlicensed tattoo centre. They said the two had no formal training for performing the dangerous operation nor any qualification or license to run the centre. Can anyone perform the surgery? Does the medical council allow this?@JPNadda@Subramanian_ma@IMAIndiaOrg@chennaipolice_pic.twitter.com/1StypvDiEp
The police booked the duo under several sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including on charges of acts endangering human life and voluntarily causing hurt or injury.
