Self-Defence is a very basic survival skill. To be able to defend oneself Physically no matter what stature one holds is the key. Women need it more than Men as they are twice likely to get assaulted than men. In a recent incident involving a teenage girl, travelling in the Mumbai Local Train acted with caution and firmth. This girl is visually-challenged. She bravely managed to pin a man down who mas misbehaving with her, till the Police arrived.
The onlookers were so shaken by the incident and the molester was taken aback by the tactical strength the girl possessed. The teen was trained in Self-Defence and Karate, who has caught the molester's hand, twisted it till he was down on his knees and was crying in pain.
According to the reports by the Dadar GRP who made the arrest, the girl was travelling by train with her 56-year-old father. They boarded the 8: 15 pm fast train to Dadar to return to home. As she was differently abled with her vision, they have boarded the special compartment reserved for them.
The accused who is a 24-year-old, named Vishal Baliram Singh had also got into the same compartment as the girl, despite it being reserved for special people. A Senior Police Inspector who was there while making the arrest had given details of the incidents as narrated by the girl.
When the Accused got into the train, he stood right behind her and began touching her inappropriately. The girl could sense and she was getting prepared. She was very calm and did not panic in the situation. She turned around, grabbed the man's hand, twisted it so hard, he was screaming in pain.
The fellow passengers started looking when the girl told her father that the man was inappropriately touching her. Pandhare, a senior officer says, "Until the train reached next station, Matunga, the girl held Singh-much taller than she is, in a tight grip".
Astonished by the girl's strength, the police officer said, "Her technique was so perfect that Singh's fingers would have been broken if they did not ease her grip at the time of the arrest. She did not seem scared at all and boldly told us to arrest him". The man was sent to remand for two days.
To which the 15-year-old says, "We are always easy targets to creeps like this. Our school teaches us self-defence and karate as part of our curriculum, so we can face the world despite our disability. I want the man to suffer, to ensure he does not repeat the act with any other 'easy target',".
