National Commission of Women gave a shocking statement on the Mangalore Pub attacks, they have pointed fingers at the girls who were beaten and the pub owner.
A team from the National Commission for Women was in Mangalore to investigate the attack on women in a pub by members of a fringe group called the Sri Ram Sene. The attack had disgusted the entire nation. But in what has come as a total shock, the NCW sounds like the Sene instead, with a key commission member pointing fingers at the women and the pub owner.
Blaming security lapses in the Mangalore pub incident, National Commission for Women said it will recommend cancellation of licence of the restaurant as it was supposed to serve only food to guests.
Nirmala Venkatesh, a member of the three-member NCW team which visited the pub, said, "we have visited the pub and there was no security no security guard or anybody standing there for the security of women.
"From some sources we heard that there was a live band also and some girls were also participating or whatever it is" she said.
"We have thoroughly seen all the documents and we are not satisfied with the answers they were giving the management which was present there.
"It is very unfortunate, they have no right to run the pub like that. The NCW will recommend for cancellation of the license," Venkatesh said.
"The license was given to them for serving food or whatever it is to guests who are staying in the lodge," she said.
