A 15-year-old boy from Bhiwandi in Thane district of Maharashtra allegedly ****ed his elder brother.*The boy flew into rage when the victim, Mohammad Shaikh (19), asked him to stop playing PUBG on his mobile phone this morning, said senior police inspector Mamata D’Souza. This is yet another case highlighting the negative effects of PUBG addiction.
