It is learnt that the youth was behind the girl since about two years. Recently, he began to follow her and used to pester her to love him. The girl’s parents, who came to know about it, had called the village elders to sort out the issue following which the village elders had warned the youth to leave the girl alone.
But still, the youth followed her and had even demanded her to celebrate her birthday with him. As the youth was not well educated and had no work, the girl had rejected his proposal and even the girl’s parents had rejected his marriage proposal with the girl.
Mandya East Police, who have registered a case, are investigating.
