Indore Old‑Age Home Demolished After Teen Assault Video
A video went viral showing a 14‑year‑old boy beating elderly women at an old‑age home in Indore.
People were upset, so the police looked into it.
They found the home was built on city land without permission and had been illegal for four years.
The owner gave the property back to the city, and the building was torn down.
The 31 women living there were moved to safe government homes, and the boy was taken to a child‑welfare center for help.
Authorities demolished an illegal old‑age home in Indore after a viral video showed a 14‑year‑old beating elderly women with a stick.
The home operated on an 8,000‑sq‑ft municipal property that had been encroached for four years and lacked statutory permissions.
Neelam Dubey, the operator, surrendered the property to the Indore Municipal Corporation, leading to its razing.
The 31 inmates were relocated to government‑recognised facilities run by the Social Justice Department.
The boy was taken before the Child Welfare Committee, which placed him under protective care.
