The police have booked a man for sexually harassing her 15-year-old stepdaughter in Ludhiana. The police have started further investigation.

The victim’s mother stated that her second husband Sourabh Verma had been committing obscene acts with her stepdaughter for a long time. On April 25, he saw that the accused was showing obscene films to her daughter in another room and was touching her private parts with his hand. “When I protested, the accused ran away, threatening to kill me and my daughter Deepika. I tried to talk to him several times and also tried to speak to my father-in-law, who said that it was no big deal and threatened me to keep quiet. I was very scared. So accordingly, I was forced to lodge a police complaint,” alleged the complainant.

The Haibowal police have launched a probe.
