According to locals, Shetty used to follow women and pester them to provide their mobile numbers. He is also accused of trying to molest a college students.

Frustrated over his behaviour, residents of Bellare on Thursday thrashed him in public while a couple of onlookers videographed the entire episode on their mobile phones. A video clip in which Shetty is begging the local residents not to punish him is going viral on WhatsApp.

Shetty was then handed over to the Bellare police, who reportedly let him off with a warning.

The public should be united and treat such criminals.
Our Police and Justice system can not hand effectively because of loop holes in our Judicial system. we don't blame the officers, the law is very weak.

Whoever does such act specially molester of girls, should be punished regardless his religious background.

If the people work together unitedly, then can control without the help of police or court. The police can relax!!!!!

Gadag, Aug 1: A woman in Gadag district of Karnataka mortgaged her 'mangalsutra' to buy a television set for her children following the Karnataka government's decision to continue the classes through TV amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

A resident of Radder Naganur village, Kasturi, who is also a mother of two, purchased a television set against her 'mangalsutra' for Rs 14,000. She bought the TV after her children's school teachers asked them to attend classes via the television set.

Kasturi said, "I can not send the children to the neighbours' house every day and it was necessary for them to study. We had no other option but to buy a TV set."

She said, "Both, my husband and I are daily wage workers and during coronavirus, we do not have work or money."

"I sold my 'mangalsutra' for Rs 20,000 and bought a TV for Rs 14,000," said Kasturi while happily adding, "Now, my kids can study at home itself."

Kasturi's daughter, Surekha said, "We did not have the TV for several months but now when we have it, we will study and get a bigger 'mangalsutra' for my mother."
