Haryana: Maulvi Arrested for Molestation and Forced Conversion
In Haryana, a 15-year-old Hindu girl was taken to a mosque where a cleric and others forced her to convert to Islam.
They cut her sacred Hindu threads and wiped her tilak.
The girl also said the cleric touched her in a bad way.
Her family found her and reported it to the police.
A big meeting called a mahapanchayat was held to protest this.
People there said the police should arrest the bad people quickly or they will protest more.
The family is scared because some of the bad people are still free and they have gotten threats.
The police have arrested five people, including two who are not even named in the police report.
