On the family's complaint, police registered a case under sections relating to promoting enmity between different groups, voluntarily causing hurt and assault with the intent to outrage the modesty of a woman.

Both sides met the superintendent of police and demanded action.

The district bar association held a meeting today and demanded immediate arrests in the case.
