FIR Lodged and police took finger for forensic investigation.
“I had ordered three cone ice creams from an app. One of them was a butterscotch ice cream of Yummo brand. After eating half of it, I felt a solid piece in my mouth. I thought it could be a nut or a chocolate piece, but when I spat it out to check what it was. I was traumatized to discover that it was a piece of thumb with nail. So, I preserved the portion in ice and approached the police,” Ferrao had said in a video statement.
Yummo Ice Creams stated, “We have stopped manufacturing at third-party facility, isolated the said product at the facility and our warehouses, and are in the process of doing the same at the market level. Product quality and safety being our highest priority, we were in process to address the situation. Meanwhile, the matter was escalated, and an official police complaint was filed by the customer.”

We have taken the piece of flesh for investigation. A case under sections 272, 273, and 336 of the Indian Penal Code has been registered against the ice cream company.
