A 15-year-old girl and her mother were allegedly assaulted by their neighbour and his parents in Ahmedabad’s Behrampura on Friday after the family objected to the youth’s alleged harassment of the minor and attempted to approach the police.
Kagdapith police have registered a case against the three accused based on a complaint filed by the girl’s mother and launched an investigation into the incident.
Youth Allegedly Harassed Minor Girl at Night
According to the complaint, the 44-year-old woman lives in Behrampura with her two daughters and supports the family through daily-wage work. Her husband died some time ago.
The woman alleged that a young man living in the neighbourhood repeatedly harassed the family by knocking on their window late at night. He also allegedly molested and harassed her 15-year-old daughter.
On the night of October 15, a male relative of the woman contacted the youth over the phone and confronted him about his behaviour. The youth allegedly became angry and declared that he would continue harassing the girl, triggering an argument.
The family decided to approach the police to lodge a complaint. However, community members intervened and mediated between the two sides, preventing a formal complaint from being filed that night.
Neighbour and Parents Allegedly Attack Mother, Daughter
The situation escalated the following morning, October 16, when the youth allegedly arrived at the woman’s residence with his parents.
According to the complaint, the youth questioned the family for attempting to approach the police and allegedly threatened them, claiming that nobody could take action against him.
When the minor girl asked him to leave her alone, he allegedly attacked her. Her mother intervened to protect her, but the youth’s parents also joined the confrontation.
The three allegedly assaulted the mother and daughter with kicks and punches. Local residents rushed to the scene and helped rescue the victims.
Kagdapith Police Register Case
Following the complaint, Kagdapith police registered a case against the youth and his parents in connection with the alleged assault, harassment and threats.
Police have initiated an investigation to establish the circumstances of the incident and examine the allegations made by the complainant.
