Vandalism at Mangaluru Salon: Sri Rama Sene Members Detained

In Mangaluru, members of the Sri Rama Sene, led by activist Prasad Attavar, stormed into the ‘Colors Unisex Salon’ near Aditya Complex, Bejai KSRTC, accusing it of engaging in “illegal activities.” The group alleged the salon operated as a massage center involved in immoral practices.

According to a police press note, the incident occurred at 11:51 am when a group of 9-10 individuals forcefully entered the premises, causing extensive damage. They shattered glass, destroyed furniture, and scattered products, verbally abusing and intimidating the staff. Two employees were reportedly assaulted, while one intruder recorded the chaos on camera.

A leaked video of the incident revealed the men threatening the women staff and vandalizing the property. The salon owner filed a complaint at the Barke Police Station, prompting an immediate investigation. Prasad Attavar has since been taken into custody, and further inquiries are underway.

Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) in Mangaluru confirmed the investigation and promised swift action. Meanwhile, Karnataka’s Home Minister G. Parameshwara condemned the incident, emphasizing that no one has the right to disrupt a lawful business. He assured that all individuals involved would face legal consequences.

The minister also addressed concerns about illegal practices, urging citizens to report such cases through proper legal channels. He reminded everyone that taking the law into their own hands is unacceptable, and violators will face strict penalties.
