CHUNIAN: A young man was forcefully shaved bald and his face blackened by locals in the district's Chahar village for allegedly travelling to meet a woman in the neighbourhood, reports on Sunday indicated.
Residents accused the young man for travelling to Chahar in order to meet a girl who resided in the village. They said that was why locals caught him, shaved his head, and blackened his face.
However, police refused to register a first information report (FIR) or book anyone, saying they would only take action if there was a complaint.
