Are you serious!? I’d give anything to be able to play or talk to my father one more time … some idiots don’t realize how lucky they are to be able to spend time with their parents while they’re still alive.

In a previously unrelated incident, police officers were involved after a young man from Punjab’s Kharar took the PUBG Mobile game craze to another level after he spent Rs 16 lakhs from his father’s account to buy virtual ammo at the game.
The 17-year-old would take his father’s cell phone under the guise of online classes, but would access his father’s bank accounts to make in-app purchases for himself and his friends.
To make up for the losses incurred, the game addicted boy was forced to work in a scooter repair shop.
