Punjab Girl Molested

The chief of a gurdwara at a village here was arrested on Sunday for allegedly molesting a 13-year-old girl, police said.

A class 12 student was allegedly sexually harassed and pushed down the stairs by her friends at a stadium in Punjab's Moga district, leaving her seriously injured. Although the incident took place last week, a case was filed on Tuesday.

A court in Punjab has acquitted a bus driver and his three accomplices of charges of molesting a 14-year-old Dalit girl and pushing her off a moving bus leading to her death in Moga in 2015, citing "lack of evidence" after the victim's mother turned hostile.

A speeding private luxury bus, said to belong to a company owned by the ruling Badal family, allegedly ran over a scooterist on the Chandigarh-Manali national highway in Ropar on Thursday. The area witnessed angry protests over the death, with locals sitting on the accident site with body.

Both houses of Parliament were adjourned repeatedly this morning as the opposition protested noisily demanding a discussion on the death of a 14-year-old girl who was molested and then thrown off a bus in Punjab's Moga last week.

A day before Moga shuts down in protest against the death of a teenager, who was molested and then shoved off a running bus, the family has agreed to cremate the body, following intervention by Punjab chief minister Parkash Singh Badal, sources said.

Four days after a teenage girl died after she was molested and then pushed off a moving bus in Punjab's Moga district, CCTV footage has emerged of the bus being driven recklessly on a highway, just minutes before the incident.

Friends and family of the teenage girl, who died after being molested and thrown off a moving bus in Moga, said the 14-year-old aspired to be a police officer and wanted to fight for the rights of the weak and oppressed.

As the Akali Dal-led Punjab government battles massive political protests over the death of a teen who was molested and then thrown off a moving bus in Moga district, a minister sought to play down the incident, calling her death as "God's will", while a party lawmaker called it an "accident".
