GUWAHATI: A woman approached the Panbazar Police Station along with her husband, alleging assault by the hostellers of Cotton University, and the police have started their investigation into the matter.
The incident came to light after the couple reported that they were beaten up by students of the MNDP Boys’ Hostel. They also accused the boys of being drunk when they attacked the woman and her husband. They also mentioned that the boys were initially attacking a man, and when the woman stepped in between them to stop them, they started beating her up along with her husband. A police team reportedly arrived at the location soon after the incident was reported and took the woman for a medical examination. Case number 3012/23 was registered at the Panbazar Police Station under sections 341/323/325/354 of the IPC.
The hostel authorities, however, denied the involvement of any of their students in the incident and mentioned that the miscreants must be from outside as the hostellers follow the rules of the institution.
