Mangalore, Jul 14: It turned out to be a dark day for a lady residing in Kukkatte in Ganjimutt, near Gurupur here as a young man of her neighbourhood tried molesting her on Thursday July 14.
A relative of the 25-year-old victim said that 18-year-old Azharuddin, the accused, was known to the lady and on Thursday morning when she was alone with her baby at home, he knocked on her door asking for some onions.
"The man who was familiar with the lady knocked at her door this morning and requested her to give a few onions and tomatoes for cooking. She brought them from the kitchen and handed over the same to him," said the relative.
"The man then told her that he wanted to see her baby. As she turned to bring the baby he attacked her from behind. When she protested he manhandled her and pushed her against a wall injuring her on the head."
The lady was taken to SCS hospital for scanning.
The accused is absconding. Bajpe police are investigating the case.
