Concerned for the safety of the children, the mother filed a complaint with the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), a regional political party known for its activism and community protection efforts. The women’s brigade of the MNS responded promptly to the complaint, confronting the man and demanding accountability.
According to the police, the suspect, identified as Dhiraj Gore (24), resided in a nearby colony. He allegedly sneaked into the backyard of the tenement, especially during the night, to watch the girls from the rear window. The mother had installed a CCTV camera outside her home to monitor the area, which ultimately led to Gore being caught red-handed on Thursday night.
The incident was reported from the Shivneri Nagar area in Bhayandar (West). After capturing the footage, the mother immediately informed Abhinandan Chavhan, the deputy MNS city chief, who, along with other party members, went to the scene and apprehended Gore. Following a confrontation, he was handed over to the Bhayandar police station. It is suspected that Gore had been capturing images and recording videos of the female family members for over two months.
Local residents expressed outrage over the man’s actions, calling for stronger measures to protect children from such behavior. Many praised the MNS for their prompt response and commitment to community safety.
This incident underscores the critical need for vigilance regarding child safety in neighborhoods. The MNS women’s brigade has vowed to continue their efforts to ensure a secure environment for all residents.
As the story gains attention, it emphasizes the importance of community involvement in preventing predatory behavior. Local authorities are urged to conduct further investigations to prevent similar incidents in the future, as the community stands united in advocating for increased safety measures to protect its children from potential threats.
