A heart-wrenching incident has been reported from Uttar Pradesh’s Kasganj where two children aged 10 years and 14 years were thrashed mercilessly, after tying their hands with rope, paraded after shaving their heads for stealing Rs 5,000 from a shop.

The incident has come to light from the Wahidpur area, where some villagers made the purported videos and posted them on social media, which initiated outrage among locals. According to the police officials, the investigation has revealed that two children used to work at the shop of a shopkeeper in this village. The shopkeeper has made these two children shave their hair and take off their shirts and paraded them in the village on the charge of stealing from the shop.

Meanwhile, refuting all the allegations, the boy’s mother claimed that her children were not involved in any kind of stealing, they went to buy salt at the shop, and they just touched a few things. Reportedly, no money was recovered from them and the shop owner was also not able to produce any evidence in support of the claims. 

Soon after finding out the fact, police registered a complaint against the shopkeeper and took him into custody. Meanwhile, police have arrested four other accused in the case and assured of strict legal action against those who carry out such an act.

The Police have registered a case against him and the people of the family involved. Meanwhile, the police have arrested the accused father and a search to nab others is underway as they are absconding.
