Two to tango, a crowd to thrash

Rozy Nehoshe and Moe Lattif being questioned by a policeman

Bangalore, May 30 : Wilson Garden residents beat up two foreign students fighting over a girl.

Two foreign students and a girl were reportedly beaten up by some residents in Wilson Garden on Thursday night for allegedly disturbing their sleep.

The two students were fighting over the girl! Their brawl dragged residents out of their beds.

Moe Lattif (24) from South Africa, a final year information technology student at Sampoorna Academy of Higher Education near Hennur Cross, and his one-time friend Yasser (25) from Saudi Arabia, a final year Bachelor of Computer Application student at the same college, were involved in a fight over Rozy Nehoshe (27), from Nagaland.

Both Lattif and Yasser, who were treated for injuries at a hospital on K H Road and were later charged by the Wilson Garden police for creating public nuisance.

HOW IT STARTED
It all began when one of Rozy’s colleagues invited her for a dinner at a restaurant on KH Road. She called up Lattif and asked him to accompany her. Yasser, who has a crush on Rozy, also managed to get an invite. At the dinner table, Yasser was piqued as Lattif sat close to Rozy and even draped his arm around her.

He felt Lattif was deliberately getting cozy with “his” girl just to provoke him. Yasser then demanded that Rozy sit next to him. She ended up sitting between the two of them. This angered Yasser even more and he began to abuse both Rozy and Moe. He accused Moe of “stealing” his “sweetheart”. 

Sometime during the dinner, Rozy and Lattif left the restaurant together on some pretext and Yasser went looking for them. He found the two hugging each other on 7th Cross, where Moe’s bike was parked. Yasser at first tried to separate them, but when the two refused to be parted, he went down the road shouting for help.

Yasser was further infuriated when no one came to his aid. He began hurling stones at the windows of residents. The scene turned ugly when angry and sleepy residents walked out of their houses to find the reason for the commotion. Some auto drivers too joined the crowd. Things got out of control when Moe hit a resident who ordered Rozy to get back home. The residents, along with auto drivers, ganged up and thrashed the trio before handing them over to the police.

INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL
Medical tests proved that the three were under the influence of alcohol. While Rozy was let off, Moe and Yasser were produced before the VI Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate on Friday. They were released on conditional bail.

This is not the first time foreign students have been involved in a public brawl over a girl. Brigade Road-Residency Road junction witnesses similar brawls between foreign students almost every fortnight.
