Nuh (Haryana), Nov 16 (PTI) At least three women suffered injuries after some unidentified persons hurled stones at them allegedly from a mosque here on Thursday night, police said.
A police officer said they have not yet received any complaint and added action will be taken as per the law.
According to the police, the incident took place near a mosque around 8:20 pm when a group of women were on the way for a 'kuan (well) poojan'.
When they reached near the mosque, stones were allegedly pelted at them, the police said, adding three women were injured in the incident.
Nuh Superintendent of Police Narender Bijarniya, along with a huge police force, reached the spot.
