Udupi, May 22: A man was thrashed by the public for alleged eve-teasing near city municipal council office here on Thursday May 22, and handed over to the police.

It is said that a woman had come with her husband to Udupi on Thursday, and while her husband went to a pharmacy near CMC office, she stood outside by the road waiting for him.

Meanwhile, a man who was standing nearby reportedly began staring at her and making lewd gestures. The woman at first ignored him, but when he started coaxing her to go with him, she complained to her husband and to the locals who were nearby.

The locals swung to action and caught hold of the man, and thrashed him. The police arrived at the spot and he was taken to the town police station.

Police sources said that the man seemed mentally unstable and could not even tell his name clearly. He said he was from Bailoor, Karkala.

The locals said that the area around CMC office is notorious for immoral activities, and call girls are usually seen in the vicinity. Some months back, the CMC officials themselves had taken action. The police on their part have been ineffective in controlling the activities, say the locals.

    Mr. Gabriel,

    When you say hungry I know what you meant. But only men show hunger not women why is it so, are men too weak to control their hunger.

    Well-wisher (whose) ?


    U shud read my comment in holistic spirit... There are many interpretations to what i commented... i guess u took just the sexual coercion angle and forgot abut root causes n reasons behind such behavior. Hope u understand human behavior is something which cannot be anticipated in accurate predictive levels. I raised a chained dog ( male or female) at home bcz if u notice, most of these pet dogs serve us but their own identities ad biological drives are curtailed by forceful intervention by us.

    Ultimately we have to accept reality of nature, for , no one can go against or break laws of nature.... If u break, there will be consequences.

    some handsome men get what they want and some normal/decent men do not !! this is similar to a story of a dog chained at home without thinking about its instincts. Coercion into another persons privacy is wrong but crime is a symptom of not able to realize what we want in life ... harsh but true !!

    If u beat up a hungry man whats the use? Either feed him or show him the way to find food. Those privileged men take high moral ground and try to use violence against accused....

    Finally all end up being violators of law except the woman in question.

    'Kaalen Ho ChedoPishya Bareen
    Makaa Laagla' are the precise words
    I used to hear often in the past and they still 'goonj' in my ears.
    Did not take long for 'Pishya' to turn into 'Usaar' though!
    Had a way with looking innocent and writing letters you see. What beautiful days!

    When people with sound mind eve-tease knowingly, why not an insane person involves in such things? He may be insane, that does not mean that his mind/body is dead. We can ask the psychiatrist for right answer. Let Police do their duty.

    Perfect Sunita Madam, I agree.If he had gone 'mental' after teasing and a girl 'fell' for him-it was something else.
    Most cases it is like this and this only. .
    1.Boys Tease.
    2.Girls Smile.
    3.Kuchu Kuchu- Gusu Gusu
    4. Finally Boy Mental....

    Stop the illegal activities first. What is the police and moral police doing in this area? Why not stop these call girl business. is this the culture which can keep going? Because of such activities men like this mental soma look at all lonely girls as if they too are call girls.

    Very good job done by public. Eve teasers should be punished severely so that it would be an example for other eve teasers and this would stop eve teasing in the coming days. Yeh public hai, yeh sub janthi hai, yeh public hai...
