The high court noted that the accused had allegedly hit the father, a retired Sub-Inspector of Police, with a helmet and caused injuries to him for objecting to the lewd comments against his 14-year-old daughter.
It is "unfortunate" that a father and teenage daughter cannot walk together on the road without having to hear lewd comments about her, the Kerala High Court said while declining to grant anticipatory bail to a man who allegedly made such inappropriate remarks and also assaulted the father when he objected to it.
The high court noted that the accused had allegedly hit the father, a retired Sub-Inspector of Police, with a helmet and caused injuries to him for objecting to the lewd comments against his 14-year-old daughter.
"It is unfortunate if a man and his daughter cannot walk together without someone making lewd comments. Such things should stop," the court observed on Wednesday.
The accused, on the other hand, claimed that the girl's father had attacked him and the other person who was with him at the time.
