As per the report, ” Pawan alias Sonu, was publicly humiliated and thrashed by family members of three minor girls and locals. The accused allegedly harassed one of the girls. The victims allege that he had been making obscene comments and even molested one of them on a regular basis while on their way to school. After knowing about the incident, family members paraded Pawan naked and thrashed him in public.”
“This matter is from Pammi chowk area. A woman has complained that a man named Pawan has been harassing school girls, behaving in a vulgar manner with them. He also used to flash his private parts, ” an ANI report quoted SHO Women Police Station, Sunita Daka.
