Begusarai, June 12 (IBNS): A Hindu family in Bihar's Begusarai area has filed a complaint with the police that on an intervening night on June 10 and 11, a mob had entered their house, and  molested two women and tried to kill the only male member  of the family, media reports said.

The Hindu family told Swarajya over the phone that the men were locals Muslims who have been pressuring them to sell their house and leave. They allegedly threatened the family that the locality has few Hindu families and thus they wouldn't be able to do much.

"Even Bajrang Dal won't help you,” the men allegedly told the family, that lives in refinery area of Barauni tehsil’s Nurpur village, a report by the magazine said.

Swarajya Magazine reported the complaint by a woman named Munni Kumari  states that of the three men who entered the house at 1 am, two were masked and one was completely naked. The naked man began to rape her mother, while one of the masked men turned towards her and tore off her kurta. The other masked man pointed a pistol at her brother's head. A scuffle ensued and the family managed to get out of their grip, but one of the men tried to strangulate her brother. After a lot of struggle, the men left, but not before thrashing them and throwing a cycle over them. 

Kumari named one of the members as Laddu Alam.

Munni's brother, Munna, told Swarajya over the phone that the men told them to sell off their house in a week and leave, or sell it to them for Rs 16 lakh. 

He told the magazine that the  men boasted that they have support of the local Congress leader.

“We have told them that this house belongs to our ancestors and there is no way we are leaving. But they use force. They beat me up last month also,” he told the magazine.
