The Bihar government demolished illegal huts and encroachments on government land linked to three accused in the Mandar Hill minor molestation case on Saturday. The action took place in Banka district, after a video allegedly showing a young woman being harassed at the popular tourist destination of Mandar Hill went viral on social media.
The three accused are Mohammad Abdullah, Nitish Kumar, and Vikas Rai. Banka SP Amitesh Kumar stated that the encroachments were removed with the help of bulldozers and administrative force under the leadership of Block Development Officer Baunsi. Police were conducting raids to arrest the accused, and an FSL team collected evidence from the spot.
This incident is part of a series of videos showing the assault or harassment of minors and women in Bihar.
