A Hindu boy and a Muslim girl were attacked and threatened in a park in Bengaluru. The incident took place at Chandra Suvarna Layout Park. The video of the incident is viral on social media. The police have arrested five accused. Actually, Chandra Suvarna in Bengaluru was sitting on a scooty in the layout park. Meanwhile, some boys surrounded them and started recording the video by questioning them.
One of the accused is repeatedly asking the girl whether her family members know where she is. Meanwhile, the Hindu young man asks why he is sitting with a girl from another religion. The youth also asked Yavati why she was sitting on a bike with a Hindu boy wearing a burqa. After this, the woodcutter also starts arguing with those youths. Then the accused youth took the young man sitting on the scooty a little away and started assaulting him. Also, they start saying that the girl should be ashamed.
First police refused violence, then refused to arrest
In this case, the police initially denied violence, but in the video, the accused can be seen beating the young man and beating them with sticks. According to the police, the girl has complained of harassment and assault. In this case, the police have arrested five accused Wasim, Mansoor, Afrid, Mahin and a minor.
Priyank Kharge’s statement
Politics has also started on this whole matter. Priyank Kharge, son of Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Minister of Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, said that “any kind of moral policing” will not be tolerated in the state. Karnataka is a progressive state. It is not Bihar, Uttar Pradesh or Madhya Pradesh.
