Spouses hacked when they objected to bid to molest wives
The Pettah police have launched a manhunt for two people who allegedly molested two women and hacked their husbands using a machete late Sunday. The investigation was instituted on the basis of a complaint submitted by two employees of the office of the Accountant General (AG), Thiruvananthapuram, who were identified as Ravi Yadav, a senior accountant from Haryana; and Jaswath Singh, a data entry operator from Uttar Pradesh. The alleged incident occurred on V.V. Road in Pattoor around 8.30 p.m. when the complainants had gone for a walk along with their families. A motorcycle-borne duo purportedly made indecent remarks at the complainants’ wives and attempted to molest them. They attacked the husbands when they tried to thwart their attempts.More Related News
