Agananuru 256

Punishment of the village court to a man who forced sex an innocent girl
The friend-maid of the heroine stops the hero from joining saying these words:
It is a tortoise lives in wed land. It will walk as a drunken man. It will destroy cultivated plants in the field. You are the man of such land.
Don’t lie. I know you’re false with evidence.
Yesterday you played with your mating-girl in the flood of Vaiyai-river with enjoyment. The friends of the mating-girl tried to hide the matter. But it is spoken openly by the people of the village.
In what way, it is spoken?
Kallur is village. A man did a crime of sexing an innocent girl. It was appealed in the village court. The man said lie in the court “I do not know her at all”. The court called for witness; and based evidence decided the man as a crime. It gathered the relatives of the crime; punished in front of his relatives poring boiling lime on his head. As this news was spoken everywhere, your love contact is spoken in this village.
Don’t touch my innocent lady.
