Mangaluru, Feb 21: Two persons, Mohan and Venkatesh, from Kaiyoor near Suratkal, who were found to sexually harassing a minor girl at Nadugodu bus stop near Kinnigoly have been remanded to judicial custody.
The police suspect the involvement of another person in this act. The policemen, who are looking into several other complaints that have emerged against the above two youngsters, have also been investigating the role of their other possible accomplice.
These two persons, who were found to be involved with sexually harassing a minor girl near Nadugodu bus stop near Kinnigoly were arrested by Mulky police with the support of some local people. Some school children had narrated to the locals the ordeal school girls undergo at the hands of some people riding on motor bikes. Some young people from the area prepared themselves to provide relief to the kids, and were awaiting for these trouble mongers to arrive at the spot again.
On Thursday the local youths caught hold of the two men red-handed. But the culprits reportedly tried to intimidate the people by claiming that they belong to scheduled tribes and that the police are helpless in acting against them. Even when the police arrived, they tried to show the same arrogance, but the police tamed them before registering a case and producing them in the court, it is gathered.
