VADODARA: Six persons including four minor boys aged 16-17 years and two youths were detained on Tuesday for allegedly molesting four teenage girls and beating up their family members when confronted in Padra on Monday.
According to police, the four minor boys had been allegedly harassing the girls aged between 15 and 17 years, for the last couple of days. But on Monday their behaviour worsened as they followed the girls, whistled at them and passed lewd comments.
The teenage girls, who live in the same neighbourhood, were walking back to their homes after giving vegetables to a family friend living nearby when the four minor boys along with their friend Satish Parmar (29) followed them in Parmar’s van. Parmar drives the van for a private company on Padra road.
Eunuchs of Baranpura Akhada have now decided not to visit any house in the city for a year to welcome and bless a newborn
VADODARA: They are among the first ones to visit the houses to play with and bless a newborn child. They also demand money from the parents and grandparents in return.
But the eunuchs of Baranpura Akhada, one of the prestigious groups of eunuchs, have now decided not to visit any house in the city for a year to welcome and bless a newborn. The decision was taken unanimously in a meeting of eunuchs held before Diwali keeping in mind the worsening situation of the pandemic. An incident experienced by a few eunuchs at Old Padra Road in October compelled the community to introspect and hold the meeting.
Hema Patel was arrested on Sunday
Vadodara: A woman in Padra was arrested on Sunday for staging a fake robbery from her house of cash and jewellery worth Rs 88,500.
Hema Patel concocted a tale about three masked Hindi-speaking men who barged into her house on December 14 evening and holding her at knife point, robbed Rs 5,000 in cash besides gold and silver jewellery.
“Her claims didn’t sound true as nobody in her neighbourhood saw any person entering or leaving the house at the time of the robbery. We questioned her tactfully and after a point, she could not lie and admitted,” said a police official.
