After a human finger was found in a Yummo Ice Cream cone purchased in Malad, the Malad police launched an investigation. The police discovered that an accident had occurred on May 11 the day the cone was manufactured. Omkar Pote, a 24-year-old assistant packing manager at the company, severed his middle finger while working on the fruit feeder machine. 

The machine, which is used to crush ingredients such as cashews, almonds, and pistachios for the ice cream, malfunctioned when the lid of the ingredient container fell inside. In an attempt to retrieve it, Pote`s middle finger on his right hand was cut off.
