Police in India have arrested a man whose smelly socks caused a dispute between him and fellow passengers on a bus.
They had lodged a complaint against Prakash Kumar, 27, for "causing a public nuisance", BBC News reported.
The incident occurred en route to the capital, Delhi, after Kumar removed his shoes and socks.
The stench from the socks was so bad that passengers asked Kumar to put them in his bag or throw them out.

But he allegedly refused, sparking a heated argument.
Passengers then forced the bus driver to pull over at a police station in the northern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh where the complaint was lodged.
Kumar said his socks had not been stinking, and that the passengers had quarrelled with him for "no reason".
The police said Kumar had been granted bail.
