Case registered for abusing Dalit boy
Special Correspondent

Under the SC and ST Act, IPC

The Kaveripattinam Police have registered cases under the SC and ST
(Prevention of Atrocities) Act and Indian Penal Code against a
caste-Hindu, Annamalai, on charges of abusing and beating a Dalit boy,
C. Illavarasan (18), at Surilihalli village of Karadihalli panchayat
in Krishnagiri District on Thursday.

According to a complaint lodged with the police, Annamalai was upset
with Illavarasan for allegedly waving at his daughter while she was
travelling in a bus between Sappanipatti to Surulihalli, along with
the boy's cousin. The boy rejected the charge and claimed that he only
waved at his cousin. But, it was mistaken that he had waved at
Annamalai's daughter. The boy was admitted to the Kaveripattiam
Government Hospital for treatment.

Police said cases under Section 3(1) of the SC and ST (Prevention of
Atrocities Act) and Sections 294 B (resorting to obscene act in public
place) and 324 (voluntarily causing grievous hurt) of the Indian Penal
Code were registered against Annamalai.
