The accused temporarily stopped the harassment. On Monday, they again followed the female student and created a ruckus outside her house. They even tried to pull the dupatta of the victim.
According to Bharat Samachar, they even tried to forcibly convert her to Islam. The locals got hold of the accused and thrashed them in full public glare. Thereafter, they were handed over to the police.
