Samastipur Incident Comes Days After Jamui Case
The Samastipur incident comes just days after three people were arrested in Bihar’s Jamui district following the circulation of a video showing the harassment of two Class 10 students — a boy and a girl.
The video showed the two being surrounded by a group of men. One of the men was seen holding the boy by his shirt collar and pulling him away from the girl. As the girl tried to run, a masked man was seen catching her from behind.
The two students had reportedly gone out on a scooter after attending coaching classes on Saturday evening.
The Jamui video drew attention on social media, with several users tagging Bihar Police and urging authorities to take action against those involved.
