Haldwani, Uttarakhand mein Mukhani Road ke paas ek disturbing incident ka video social media platform ‘X’ par Wednesday afternoon ko post kiya gaya, jisme do ladkiyon ko kuch mardon ke group ne harass kiya. Yeh ghatna raat ke samay Sacred Heart School ke kareeb hui.
Ek minute ke iss video mein, ek black Mahindra Scorpio ko ladkiyon ki car ko slow karte hue dikhaya gaya hai. Iske baad ek white car Nios i20 aati hai, jisme do aadmi front doors par baithe hue abusive comments karte hain.
Haldwani incident ka
ye video victim Prachi Joshi ne share kiya aur pura incident bataya. Unhone kaha, “Hum movie dekh kar wapas aa rahe the jab do gaadiyon mein 10 aadmi hamara rasta block karne lage. Yeh sab 25 minute tak chala.”
Ms. Joshi ne aur details share ki, “Black Scorpio humein rokne ke liye apne doors khol rahi thi. Peeche se white Nios i20 (UK-04-AK-1928) ne humein escape karne se roka. Pehli baar hum nikalne mein safal rahe, lekin doosri baar unhone humara rasta puri tarah se block kar diya. Khushkismati se ek scooterist aaya jiske wajah se hum wahan se bach nikle.”
The New Indian Express se baat karte hue, Haldwani ke Superintendent of Police Prakash Chand ne kaha, “Complainant woman ke complaint per, sabhi paanch rowdies ko custody mein le liya gaya hai.”
Un youths per Bhartiya Nyay Sahinta (BNS) 2023 ke kai sections ke tahat case darj kiya gaya hai, jinme Sec 126 for obstructing a person’s path without consent, Sec 78 for stalking and harassing a woman, Sec 79 for insulting a woman’s modesty, aur Sec 3(5) for committing an offense in a group of three to four people shamil hai.
Ms. Joshi ne Uttarakhand Police per bhi women’s safety ko ensure karne mein fail hone ka aarop lagaya, jabki recent sexual assault cases ke baad pure desh mein narazgi hai.
“Yeh kis tarah se shahar mein shanti aur suraksha banayi ja rahi hai? Shahar mein hooliganism kyun badh raha hai,” Ms. Joshi ne poocha aur police se video mein dikhaye gaye aadmiyon ke khilaf sakht action lene ki maang ki.
Yeh disturbing video President Droupadi Murmu ke women safety aur security ko lekar kiye gaye anguished appeal ke kuch ghanton pehle post kiya gaya tha.
