The family of the Hathras incident victim complains that they are being stopped from speaking to media as the administration has imposed Section 144 of CrPC in this village. On Friday morning, a minor from the victim’s family was sent by the family members to reach out to the media and ask to connect with them.
The minor revealed that they were asked to switch-off their mobiles and some mobiles are being taken from them. “They have taken the phone. My family has sent me here to call the media for speaking. I ducked down and came via the field. They are not letting us come out neither are they allowing the media to come in. They are threatening us as well,” said the minor family member.
As he was speaking to the media, soon a police officer came and he fled from the spot. When the media asked the police officer why they are being stopped from interacting with the family, they remained silent.
