Dutch couple in India pay 10,000 rupees ($204; £134) for four samosas

A Dutch couple visiting India's Bihar state, were charged an astronomical 10,000 rupees ($204; £134) for four samosas, the potato-stuffed snack.

They paid the sum to a hawker at the famous cattle fair in Sonepur after a "heated argument".



The price worked out at $51 (£33.50) per samosa. They usually cost about two rupees 50 paise or five US cents (3p).

The tourists then sought help from police who forced the salesman to return 9,990 rupees ($203.87; £134.91).
