Mangalore, July 12: A small group of residents of Panjimogaru led by BJP Corporator Shantha R staged a protest at Kulur junction here on Tuesday demanding stern action against police who allegedly harassed two 'innocent' Dalit teenagers in connection with the brutal murder of a woman and daughter.

Addressing the protesters Ms Shantha demanded to arrest the 'real culprit' of the murder.

She said that some people in the guise of policemen arrested Saanu and Sunil, took them to a deserted place, and urged them to admit that they had murdered the mother-daughter duo. After torturing the boys, the duo were dropped at Bikarnakatte, she said.

She alleged that police had come in a car that belonged to Hameed, the husband of the deceased. She wanted to know why police used his car though the department had plenty of vehicles of its own.

The protesters also raised slogan against police.

A memorandum urging the immediate arrest of real culprit was submitted to Deputy Commissioner, City Police Commissioner and Inspector General of Police of Civil Rights Enforcement Cell.
