BANGALORE
Around 41 jawans belonging to the Border Security Force (BSF), on a trip to Lalbagh on Sunday, went berserk, allegedly teasing women, girls and assaulting public, police personnel and security guards who came to their rescue. The jawans reportedly were in an inebriated condition.
Around six, including two constables, three guards and one member of the public were injured in the incident.
Police have booked two separate cases against the jawans and arrested jawan Dileep Kumar and four others. “The rest are absconding,” said DCP (South) HS Revanna. “Cases of assault on police, obstructing police duty, assault on public have been booked,” he said.
The injured are head constable Suresh, constable Anaveer, security guards Samad, Prashanth and Suresh and a member of the public Jayaram.
A case has been registered in Siddapura police station based on the complaint of security guard Samad and head constable Suresh.
The incident took place at 4.30pm when 41 jawans belonging to the Subsidiary Training Center (STC), Yelahanka, arrived at Lalbagh. The jawans, hailing from UP, Rajasthan and other states, were in Yelahanka for training and their superiors arranged a picnic for the jawans on Sunday.
They had been to ISKCON, Cubbon Park before arriving at Lalbagh in the evening. The bus belonging to the BSF (number: PB08 Z9292) entered Lalbagh without proper entry ticket through the Lalbagh East gate.
After disembarking, the jawans allegedly started teasing girls, women and some of them started plucking flowers and plants. “Few of them started brushing against teenaged girls,” police said.
When some male members of the public and women objected to this, the inebriated jawans reportedly assaulted some persons. This is when things really got out of hand.
The incident was reported to the security guards of Lalbagh, including Samad, Prashanth and Suresh, who confronted the jawans, but the jawans, using choicest of expletives, reportedly beat them black and blue.
The jawans also beat up head constable Suresh and constable Anaveer who arrived in a police patrolling vehicle Hoysala on hearing the news.
The police then asked for additional police personnel to confront the jawans. On hearing the news, the jawans panicked and fled the scene, abandoning their bus at Lalbagh.
However, police personnel managed to arrest four of the jawans, with Revanna saying there would be more arrests.
