Mangaluru, Aug 26: A person with a distorted mindset, who used to frequent a ladies paying guest (PG) accommodation near Sharavu temple in the city to peep in, steal clothes and otherwise exhibit weird behaviour to get weird satisfaction, was caught by the inmates of the facility red-handed. He was thrashed by the ladies on the night of Tuesday August 25.

The PG in question houses over 40 ladies. For the last some months, the PG was frequented by a man who used to suddenly enter the building and do things like stealing clothes of the women, enter rooms and behave in an odd manner etc.

Twice in the past, he was caught and handed over to the police. It is said that the police did not take the issue seriously and let him off the very next day.

The lewd man entered the room of one of the inmates of the PG all of a sudden during late night hours, picked up her clothes, and kept it on the terrace of the building. As this act came to the notice of the ladies, they started to search for him, after which he was caught hiding in the terrace. The ladies together beat him up. It is said that he succeeded in fleeing and getting himself treated at a private hospital.

The accused is of Kerala origin, and the girls are fearful because of him. The girls feel that inaction of the police has emboldened the man to indulge in such things again and again. They are afraid that he might turn out to be a killer of women like Umesh Reddy, Cyanide Mohan etc. They have requested some efficient police officers to take personal interest in the matter and see that the ladies get proper protection from such people.
