A teenage boy, who had come to see the Diwali fair organised in a housing society in Sector 49 here, was allegedly abused and thrashed with kicks and sticks by the guards, police said on Monday. An FIR has been registered with relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and under the justice juvenile act at Sector 50 police station, they said.
According to the police the incident happened on Saturday evening at the gate of the Orchid Petal Society in sector 49 where a Diwali fair was underway. The teenage boy was also going there to visit the fair but he was stopped at the gate and was thrashed.
According to the complaint filed by the mother of a 15-year-old teenager, a resident of Valley View Estate Society, her son left home with his friends at around 7.30 pm on Saturday to visit the fair.
“When my son along with his friends reached the society gate, the guards posted at the gate of the society and some residents stopped them. My son and his friends waited at the gate of the society for a long time and requested the guards that uncle let us go inside, but the guard suddenly started abusing them,” she said.
“When my son protested against the abuse, the guards started beating him and also beat up two friends of my son. Apart from the guards, there were some people who were not in the guard’s dress who also threatened to kill my son,” she added.
