The Class 9 girl is in hospital after jumping from a bus when two men tried to molest her
When two men tried to molest a young teen on a bus in Jharkhand, she shouted for help. Of the 20 people who were traveling with her, nobody responded. So on Saturday afternoon, she jumped from the bus in Jamshedpur and is now in hospital with injuries on her head, legs and chest.
The driver of the privately-run bus has been arrested along with the two stalkers. The conductor is still missing, said the police.
The teen, a Class 9 student, was heading home from school. She has told the police that after two passengers made lewd remarks to her, she asked others on board for help. When one man then moved towards her, she leapt from the front door.
"They (the stalkers) were friends of the driver and conductor," said Anoop T Mathew, a senior police officer.
