Victims were cut by sharp strings, electrocuted and fell from rooftops.Some were also hit by bullets fired in celebration during the two-day Basant festival.

Kite flyers often use strings made of wire or coated with ground glass to try to cross and cut a rival's string or damage the other kite, often after betting on the outcome. Police arrested more than 700 people for using sharpened kite strings or firing guns, and seized 282 illegally held weapons during this year's festival.
i wonder if any of these kites have been imported to the uk, and are being used by the less friendly kids in the park?

Kites are fucking vicious. My mate nearly lost an eye (I'm not joking) after being hit in the face with one.

I was expecting to read about kites that were carrying people away due to strong winds..or heart attacks from people running so fast trying to get the buggers to fly. NOT modified death weapon kites lol
