Patna: A group of men allegedly shaved the head of a tribal woman in Bihar’s Araria district late on Friday night.
The incident occurred in a tribal village that comes under Raniganj police station of the district.
The woman is facing charges of having an illicit relationship with a man in her village. The villagers caught them in a compromising position on Friday night. They overpowered both of them and shaved the head of the woman in torchlight.
Some of the attackers made a video of the incident as well and uploaded it on social media. While shaving her head, they were also using abusive words for the victim in Tribal (Santali) language.
Following the incident, some villagers informed the local police about the matter. Accordingly, a team headed by an ASI rank officer of Raniganj police station reached the tribal village and managed to rescue both victims.
