I had posted earlier about this incident at a apartment complex where our friends stay. Now there seems to be an update.
The guard who picked up the girl was taking her towards the lobby of the building, and the girl thought she was being carried towards the basement. But, he did pick her up. And why did he pick her up? Because she was standing there and picking on the flowers.
The father beat up the guard pretty bad... with bruises and also injury to his groins. There is a great deal of noise from the other residents on his behaviour and they are demanding that he re-think what he has done and if he thinks this was not the right behaviour, he should go and meet the guard and talk to him to put things in perspective. There is a lot of question about how folks ill-treat those from a lower income background and they expect them to be fine with the ill-treatment as they need the money.
The guard is said to be traumatized, and shocked that he was not even allowed to speak what happened before he was humiliated in front of children, colleagues and all. He feels he can never work as a security and now will have to go back to his hometown. He is the sole bread winner for his family, so every penny counts and he is already thinking on what are his other options. He just wishes to leave Bangalore as soon as he can be discharged.
Was this father's behaviour rational? Was it in any way right? Was he just acting as a worried, shocked father of a daughter?

He might be giving way to anger he accumulated somewhere coupled with his worry for his daughter.
ReplyDeleteVery common in our country
I don't think so... I think he was just shocked with what his daughter told him...
DeleteAfter watching Crime Patrol its better to not leave grudges...they can strike back..even commit murder! also shock or pent up anger..he didnt have the right to beat up.
