TIRUVALLUR: The police have filed a case against four people including three women for allegedly assaulting a 23-year-old pregnant woman in a brawl over money in Kakkalur on Friday.

The accused were identified as Suguna and her relatives Semmalarasan, Pavithra and Keerthi. Suguna had reportedly lent Rs 15,000 to one Andisamy of Kakkalur several months and she was frustrated when he had not paid the money or the interest amount for the past eight months.

On Friday, she along with her three relatives, went to Andisamy’s house and demanded him to return the cash. ‘However, the situation escalated into a brawl and Suguna allegedly assaulted Malini, Andisamy’s daughter who is three months pregnant,’’ police said.
