Man lives in tree after domestic spat
By Sanjaya Jena in Orissa



An Indian man has been living in a tree for the past 15 years despite passionate appeals by his mother to return home.

Kapila Pradhan, 45, a resident of Nagajhara village in the eastern Indian state of Orissa, left home after an apparent tiff with his wife.

"My son and daughter-in-law quarrelled constantly after their son was born and their relationship soured day by day," says his mother Sishula.

"One morning I found my son had left the house while everybody was still asleep."
