The Bhavishya Purana, the Skanda Purana and the Varaha Purana narrate that some of Krishna's junior wives were infatuated with Samba, the handsome, trouble-maker son of Krishna and one of his senior queens, Jambavati. One wife, Nandini, disguised herself as Samba's wife and embraced him. For this incest, Krishna cursed Samba
- to be inflicted with leprosy and
- his wives to be kidnapped by Abhira robbers after his death.
