Mangaluru, Dec 13: A group of miscreants thrashed a Muslim boy after he was found speaking to a girl belonging to another community in the city on Wednesday.

The boy and the girl, said to be friends, were speaking near State Bank Circle when a group followed them. On suspecting the motive of the group, the boy asked the girl to run away.

The group then caught hold of the boy and threatened him against speaking to the girl. They also allegedly thrashed him.

Though the boy claimed that they were colleagues working in a mall, the members did not let go of him. On learning about the incident, Mangaluru South Police rushed to the spot, sources said.

Inspector K U Belliappa said that, "When the boy and the girl were conversing, a group, claiming to be the girl's family, arrived and began interrogating the youth. The police rushed to the spot. It is not known whether the group belongs to any organisation," he said.

Why such type goondagiri is taking place in karnatka.  Why police are soft on the terror group who are behind such gundagiri.   why are they not allowing people to live in peace.  Police should trace the culprits from nearby  cctv and arrest under goonda act.   such miscreants need to be punished to teach lesson to their colleagues.   In the meantime, why these youngersters are doing unneessary things and put themselves in truble.  Talking to a girl from another community is a crime nowadays and sangh parivar members have the right to beat anyone talking to girl from different community.  These miscreants have blessings from bjp.   Situation may go out of contral in case Police do not contral these goondas from doing immoral policegiri.
