Members of the public thrashed a 33-year-old cook at a hotel after he, reportedly under the influence of alcohol, tried to misbehave with a woman who was returning from a near-by shop in Bannerghatta, in Bengaluru on Saturday (September 8, 2024) night. However, police have now filed a case of assault against those who beat him up and not against him, as the victim has not turned up to lodge a complaint with the police. The accused, identified as Ravi Kumar, was caught dragging a woman to an isolated place to allegedly sexually assault her in Kalkere colony.
The accused disrobed the victim in the melee. Shocked, the victim raised an alarm for help prompting a few passers-by to rush to the spot. They caught the accused and thrashed him, before handing home over to the police.
Ravi Kumar was admitted to a private hospital and is recovering. Based on the medical report and his statement, Bannerghatta police have registered a case of assault against unknown people. Meanwhile, they are waiting for the victim to file a complaint of sexual assault to take further action against the cook.
