Hyderabad woman accuses roommates in Shaikpet of caste-based harassment

The Filmnagar police have filed a case against two women for allegedly harassing and abusing their roommate over caste issues. The victim, a 24-year-old fashion designer from Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, had been living with them in Shaikpet for the past ten months.

Recently, the roommates started having frequent arguments over minor issues. The victim claims that the harassment worsened after she stopped them from bringing men into their room without her permission.

She alleges that the abuse included physical violence, confinement, and even threats of rape. Feeling unsafe, she decided to file a complaint with the Filmnagar police on Wednesday.

The police have started an investigation into the matter.
