New Delhi: #JusticeforHarsh and #Justiceformadhav have been trending in the top 10 on Twitter since Tuesday morning. This happened after netizens came in support of two Amity University students -- Harsh Yadav and Madhav Chaudhary -- who were thrashed by a group of students last week. In a shocking incident on August 28, Harsh and Madhav, both pursuing BA (Political Science), were allegedly assaulted by a group of 15-20 students. According to the victims, the issue erupted following an argument with two girls over parking cars outside the campus. A netizen, tagging Uttar Pradesh Police, tweeted: "Absolutely horrifying case coming from Amity Noida where 2 girls not only got Harsh & Madhav beaten up brutally by a gang of 25-30 goons over a parking argument but filed false molestation case on them. One boy is in ICU. FYI." In his complaint, Harsh wrote, "It was around 2.30 p.m. I was in my i20 car and was looking to park it while a girl in her Ford Endeavour came that way. She parked her SUV in the middle of the road and when I asked her to move, she started arguing with me. I parked my vehicle elsewhere and then when I confronted her again, she started abusing and threatening me after which the argument escalated." He said, later, the girl came along with her male friends, who abused and assaulted him and Madhav. The victims approached the police after they were allegedly beaten outside the campus as well. Meanwhile, in a cross FIR, the girl has alleged that she was molested by the two boys following which she approached her friends. Speaking on the issue, Neeraj Malik, SHO, Noida Sector 39 police station was quoted as saying, "We have received two cross FIRs, one from Harsh and the other from the girl. We are examining the CCTV footages of the area and action will be taken after conclusive evidences." Meanwhile, Amity University authorities have said the students have not filed any complaint with the institution directly. "We found out about the incident from different sources. However, a proctorial committee will be formed and the matter will be investigated thoroughly," a University spokesperson said. (with inputs from IANS)
