Hyderabad, Mar 6 (IBNS): A Hyderabad man has chopped off his son's hand after he was allegedly addicted to watching pornography on his smartphone, media reports said.

The incident reportedly occurred on Monday in the city's  Jalpalli colony in Pahadishareef area.

The father, who was identified as  Mohammad Qayyum Qureshi, is a butcher by profession.
