Amid questions about videos showing them fighting off their alleged harassers, Haryana government Thursday put on hold award and felicitation for Rohtak sisters, sources in the chief minister's office said.
Two fresh witnesses came forward with accounts that could scuttle the sexual harassment charges lodged by the two sisters against three youths.
They submitted their affidavits on Wednesday to police in support of the men — Kuldeep, Deepak and Mohit — accused of sexually harassing the sisters aboard Haryana Roadway bus on November 28.
Five others, some of them claiming to be the passengers on the bus in which the incident occurred, also shared their affidavits with reporters and stressed that the men have been wronged.
Two witnesses have also given statements in connection with a month-old video showing the sisters beating up a boy in a Rohtak park.
According to Virender Dhankar and Yogeshwer, residents of Baketa village in Rohtak, they were present at the Huda City Park when the incident happened.
The girls abused and tore off a boy's clothes after he asked them why they were wasting their time in the park instead of attending college.
Another girl accompanying them videographed it, he told the police.
