Hassan, Nov 9: Police in Hassan have revealed about a hoax rape attempt case registered by two students of a high school.

While unfortunately rapes on minors and students are being reported in the state on almost every day basis, the two girl students used it to spin a yarn. The 9th standard students of Siddartha high school in Hassan complained that a group of youth had tried to molest them behind the school while they were walking. When the girl shouted for help the youth hit them with blade. The girls narrated that their uniforms were torn and they sustained bruises on the hands in the clash with the youth. Later the youth had to run away when the girls spotted some known people coming on the same road, the girls said.

The police who took the issue very seriously made four teams to look into the matter and started the investigation immediately.

Within a day the police teams came to a conclusion that the girls had cooked up the story with an intention of not going to school for studies.

The girls are the residents of a locality of Hassan city. While the residents are in one way happy that such alleged thing did not happen, they are also worried about the impact of rape incidents on the minds of innocent girls in the state.
