Udaipur: An Estonian couple, trekking from Dungarpur to Udaipur, were seriously injured when a group
of tribals mistook them for
robbers and threw stones at
them near the Gujarat-Rajasthan border on Tuesday.
Nature lovers Eha Kutt,
46, and her husband Vahur
Estkkak, 45, had entered a
hut looking for drinking water when an old woman, who
was inside, screamed for
help after mistaking them
for robbers. Her neighbours
rushed for help and hurled
stones at the couple. Police

were arrested on Ehas complaint. Its a case of mistaken identity and not an intentional assault, Udaipur SP
Rajendra Prasad Goyal said.

hey say marriages are made in heaven perhaps the view from the
sky is better too! That may explain
the new trend of nuptial proceedings being recorded by drones buzzing over the
heads of guests. People want to be a cut
above the rest, explains Rati Saxena of
FotoShaadi, a Bengaluru studio, probably
unaware of the pun in the statement. But
yes, the grand Indian wedding now suddenly seems incomplete without a birdseye view of the glitzy proceedings.
