According to police, on October 6, victim Akshay Dudhele, resident of Dahi gaon in Kardi near Shahpur was talking to his girlfriend. The girl’s brother noticed it and thereafter took Dudhele to a room, stripped him and beat him up along with his friends.

Harrison Dmello, National Human Rights & Social Justice Commission Board member took up the issue and made the video clip viral on Facebook and WhatsApp. “I registered a complaint with the local police and even forwarded it to the chief minister. After Dudhele approached me, I followed up the case. Later, I made police register a case,” added Dmello.

After the girl’s brother found that the video had gone viral, he took his sister to the police station and registered a molestation case against Dudhele.

Police says
Senior police inspector of Shahpur police station, Sanjay Dhumal said, “We registered a case against four people on Monday. Two of them were involved in assaulting Dudhele while the other two were clicking pictures and recording the video. We are yet to arrest them. The matter is being investigated further.
