The house of the Madhya Pradesh man who was caught on camera thrashing a girl for asking him to marry her was bulldozed on Sunday. Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan shared a video of the demolition and said that: “No one who commits atrocities on women on the land of Madhya Pradesh will be spared.”
The accused, Pankaj Tripathi, has been arrested said the CM. Tripathi, who is a driver by profession, has had his licence cancelled as well for the offence.
The accused was initially detained for disrupting public peace before being freed under Section 151. According to a PTI report, the 19-year-old woman went to the police station to report the event, but she stated that she would not file a complaint against him.
According to authorities, a case has been filed against the person who shot the video and shared it in response to the woman’s complaint.
The video was taken when Tripathi and woman were conversing, and the woman mentioned marriage. The man asked the person filming the video to cease filming for 2 minutes. He then dropped the sack he was carrying, smacked the woman, and slammed her head to the ground. As she slid onto the ground, the woman yelled, and Tripathi kicked her in the face. He then hauled her up, as the woman struggled to stand.
According to PTI, the victim and the accused were in a relationship and had a disagreement, after which he beat her up.
