Mangalore Today News Network

Rampur: In yet another incident suggesting growing lawlessness in the BJP-ruled Uttar Pradesh, at least 14 men allegedly tried to molest two women in the Rampur district.

 

Crime.


The incident occurred on 22 May.

According to Indian Express, the accused also made a video of the incident and posted it on the social media, which later became viral.

The video shows a group of men trying to grope two women on a deserted road.

In the video, one of the accused can be seen pulling the dupatta of one of the women and picking her up. The men are also seen molesting the woman as her companion pleads with them to let them go.

The Uttar Pradesh Police has arrested the key accused in the Rampur molestation case and launched a massive hunt for others.

According to police, all accused have been identified and an FIR against them have been registered.

Shah Nawaz, the man arrested by UP police, was among the 14 who molested two girls on a city road, filmed the incident and then posted it on social media sites.

While no complaint has been filed by the victims, UP Police has taken suo moto cognisance of the matter and lodged the FIR against Named, Farman, Jahan-e-Alam, Saddam and others, all residents of Kuva Kheda village of Rampur, according to a Home Department official.

The Rampur police, after noticing two women being harassed by a dozen men in a video uploaded on social media, have lodged the complaint, Rampur SSP Vipin Tanda told IANS.

Meanwhile, former urban development minister Azam Khan, who is also the local legislator, drew outrage after he suggested that to avoid such crimes against them, women should sit at home and remain protected.

He also targeted the media and chief minister Yogi Adityanath by saying that he was "thankful to them as because of their making light of such crimes, criminals were getting emboldened".

"After the Bulandshahr incident, everyone should try to keep women of the family indoors. Girls should not go to places where there is a brazen dance of shamelessness," said Azam Khan while referring to the July 2016 gang rape of a minor and her mother in Bulandshahr.
