Her cab came around 4 am to pick her up. She was sharing her room with two others and her regular waking up at 3 am was causing disturbance to her room mates. Mary claims this was the beginning of all troubles. The room mates complained to the PG owner, Jyothi. After this, Jyothi would target Mary for trivial reasons, she said.Then one of Mary’s roommates accused her of stealing three dresses from the cupboard. Jyothi abused Mary and asked her to leave the PG. Mary said she had not stolen anything and offered her bags for checking. Mary also told Jyothi that as she had paid the money, she would stay put, but the abuse continued.Mary’s mother called Jyothi to talk about the issue, but Jyothi was not ready to listen. The mother went to meet Jyothi to convince her to let her daughter stay on at the PG.On Tuesday, Sridevi and Mary came to the PG, but Jyothi allegedly made them wait for too long. Sridevi insisted that she should be allowed to speak, and an irked Jyothi hurled hot coffee on the both of them. Jyothi also brought out a rolling pin and beat Sridevi with it on her shoulder. Jyothi’s parents joined the cat-fight and the mother-daughter duo was pulled and dragged by their hair and thrown out of the PG.They then headed to the Madiwala police station and filed a complaint against Jyothi and her parents. The Madiwala police have booked the trio for assault and intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace.
