Days after a 15-year-old boy was allegedly attacked by a man stalking his sister, after he objected to the latter harassing her, the boy’s family said this was the second such incident in a month.

On Monday when the boy, a class X student, was walking to school along with his 16-year-old sister in Gurgaon, the accused allegedly attacked him with a screwdriver injuring him on the head and nose. Police lodged an FIR against the 19-year-old accused, who is absconding, on Tuesday under IPC sections 323, 341 and 506.

Speaking to The Indian Express Thursday, the boy’s mother alleged, “The accused lives in our neighbourhood. On December 29, he attacked my son with a blade… We did not file a police complaint after his brother apologised and promised the incident would not be repeated… but after the latest attack, we approached police. The accused has been stalking my daughter for a few months…”

The family alleged the accused had befriended their son some time ago but later started harassing and stalking their daughter. “He had been stalking her and would often follow her when she went out and pressured her to marry him. My son had confronted him on several occasions and told him to stop bothering the family, but he continued to harass us. On one occasion, he had tried to snatch my daughter’s school bag and attempted to hit a family member with a stick. We fear another attack if he is not arrested soon,” alleged the boy’s mother.

Arvind Kumar, SHO, Sector 10 A police station, said, “The victim suffered minor injuries. On the complaint of his father, an FIR was registered and a probe was started immediately. The accused is on the run and our team is working to trace him. He will be arrested soon.”
