Yadgir, 10 July

A man allegedly flashed his private parts to a woman in Hunasagi taluk of Yadgir district. When confronted, he reportedly filed a false case against the woman and her parents. Following the incident, women protested outside Kodekal Police Station.

Shivappa Uddan, 42, allegedly behaved obscenely by exposing his private parts to Savita Mukhannavar, a widow from the same village. According to villagers, Shivappa had been repeatedly harassing the widow over the past few days by exposing himself near her house and whenever she was outside.

When her parents confronted Shivappa, retaliated by filing a false complaint at the Kodekal Police Station, claiming that they had assaulted him and issued death threats. Outraged, Savita said, “Instead of filing our complaint, the police registered a case against us.”

PSI (Police Sub-Inspector) Ayyappa told SALAR NEWS, "Shivappa who lives next to the complainant’s house, has been regularly harassing Savita during the night, urinating on the common wall and hurling obscene abuse."

However, women protested outside the station, demanding urgent action.
