Mangaluru : An incident wherein Sangh Parivar activists assaulted a young woman right in the presence of the police, has been reported from Pilikula Nisargadhama near Vamanjoor on the outskirts of the city on January 2, Tuesday.
The Sangh Parivar activists who had arrived at the spot on gathering information that students of a college located on the outskirts of the city were making merry at the Pilikula Nisargadhama, reportedly chased a young pair and took them to task.
By the time the police rushed to the spot and took the young pair to custody, a Sangh Parivar activist reportedly assaulted the woman in front of the cops themselves.. The video clipping of the same has now gone viral on social networking sites.
There is widespread anguish against the assault on the young woman by the Parivar activists right in the presence of the police.
