Mangaluru: A Sangh Parivar activist was arrested by the Mulki Police on Wednesday after he was allegedly caught recording a video of his neighbor woman while she was bathing. The accused, identified as Sumanth Poojary (22) from Hosakadu in Pakshikere, is known to be an active member of the Hindu Jagarana Vedike's Pakshikere unit.
The incident came to light a little late and is said to have occurred on Wednesday night around 11:00 in the Kemral Grama Panchayat area, near Paksikere’s Hosakadu. According to reports, Sumanth secretly recorded the woman's video while she was bathing in the bathroom. When the woman noticed the mobile camera, she raised an alarm, attracting neighbors and locals to the scene. They apprehended Sumanth and subsequently informed the local police.
Upon arriving at the location, the police took Sumanth into custody and seized the mobile phone used for recording the video. However, there are allegations that the police, under pressure from Sangh Parivar leaders, filed a case under sections of the law that could result in the accused being granted bail during the trial.
In an unexpected turn of events, on Thursday, a relative of the accused visited the police station and provided a surety bond worth Rs 50,000. After signing an undertaking, the police released Sumanth on bail.
During the investigation, it was revealed that the accused's mobile phone contained several explicit videos and photos.
