The video footage showed the victim walking in a residential area towards her house when the scooter-borne duo turned around and one of them (the pillion rider) walking across, groped and dragged her to the two-wheeler, even as she tried to wriggle out, slapping the accused.”A special team has been formed to investigate the incident and nab the culprits at the earliest. As the victim did not file a complaint so far, we are trying to find her in the area and record evidence,” said Nimbalkar.The video clip also showed the victim falling on the road after escaping from her attackers while some onlookers watched “the horror” from a distance.

Meanwhile, city Police Commissioner Praveen Sood clarified that the police were still scanning the voluminous footage of the new year’s day events at M.G. Road and Brigade Road in the city centre where some young women were alleged molested by unidentified drunken revellers.”We will not spare anyone committing any crime against women, children or others and the rule of law will prevail. “We have appealed to the victims of the alleged molestation and eye witnesses to the incident to file a complaint or give us evidence material,” said Sood.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
