In yet another shocker from Uttar Pradesh, a 55-year-old woman was beaten to death by four people for opposing their attempts of sexual harassment against her daughters at Nara village under Mansurpur police station.
Mansurpur police station SHO K P Singh said a case was registered against four people — Akash, Gopi, Binendra, and Rajesh — who are absconding. Police said a manhunt is on to nab the accused at large.
According to the complaint lodged by the family members, it is alleged that the four neighbours were harassing the young women of the family that was bitterly resisted by the mother. On Monday evening, the four accused entered her house and attacked the woman identified as Sevti Devi (55). She was severely beaten up by the men.
She was rushed to a nearby hospital where she was declared dead. The body has been sent for a post-mortem. Meanwhile, police raided the residences of all four accused to arrest them but they were not there.
It’s a big shame that such incidents are happening in our country with no strict action being taken. Such an act is no less than the act of animosity. Government should look into this immediately and summon the culprits.
