Grandmother murdered for stopping molestation
Nawada. A shocking incident has come to light from Bihar’s Nawada district, where an elderly woman lost her life after objecting to the molestation of her granddaughter. Miscreants ran her over with a Bolero vehicle when she protested, killing her on the spot. The incident has caused a sensation in the area.
This tragic event occurred on Thursday near ‘Dak Sthan Do Muhani’ in Tungi Bazaar, under the jurisdiction of the Hisua police station in Nawada district. Reports indicate that some youths were molesting a young woman. When the young woman’s grandmother objected and tried to stop them, the accused, in a fit of rage, committed this horrific act.
According to reports, the grandmother was with her granddaughter when some miscreants began behaving indecently with the young woman. Both the young woman and her grandmother protested against this behavior. Angered by the objection, the accused targeted the grandmother; they struck her forcefully with a Bolero vehicle, causing severe injuries.
Locals rushed to the scene after the incident, but the woman had already succumbed to her injuries. Upon receiving information about the incident, the Hisua police arrived at the spot and initiated an investigation. The police have taken possession of the body and sent it for a post-mortem examination.
The incident has left the deceased’s family devastated, with relatives inconsolable. Family members allege that the accused deliberately ran the woman over because she had objected to the molestation of the young woman.
According to locals, tension gripped the area following the incident. A large crowd gathered at the scene, demanding strict action against the accused. People stated that the police must take stringent measures to curb such incidents.
Police officials stated that the matter is under investigation. A police team has been deployed to identify and arrest the accused. CCTV footage from cameras near the scene is also being examined to trace the individuals involved in the crime. The police are also working to determine who was driving the vehicle at the time of the incident and how many people were involved.

This incident once again raises serious questions regarding the safety of women. There is a felt need for effective policing to curb molestation and crimes against women in rural areas.

This incident has left the local community shaken. The family demands justice, insisting that the accused be arrested immediately and given severe punishment.
The police are currently investigating the matter; the full picture will emerge only after the accused are arrested. The police have appealed to the public to maintain calm and have assured them that the guilty will not be spared under any circumstances.
