January 18, 2025 at 8:24 pmMy mom is in society committee and she was publicly scolded and embarrassed by other three commitee member in society compound where there were lot of people at that time and people were also watching from their balconies.She didn’t tell us for two day. There was a change in her behaviour and when we asked her she told us about the scenario.
We sent an official mail to society mail demanding an explanation and explained the public embarrasment caused by the situation we didn’t mention the name of the committee members just to retain the dignity of them since I beleived this would have happened in heat of the moment and expected this would get resolved by a simple apology and discussion.
After 2 days of the mail we received a mail that they will meet us on Sunday at 11am
Saturday we receive another mail defaming my mom saying she has been using her position to her benefits and so and lot of allegations have been put on her without any proof or evidence.
We have proof for 80% of the allegations are false and have been added just to defame her. The mentioned they don’t think they did anything wrong and there is no need to meet on sunday.
I want to add my mom is a simple lady she never shouts or abuses anyone. However the issue which brought all of this on was a bike parking location which was resolved by her but the actual society member escalated it and it lead to the public harrassment. I also wanna add I think there maybe partial fault of my Mom but she never was rude, disrespectful or any way partial in this situation.
There is a female friend of mom who was also present at that time and she agrees to the situation was handled very poorly. She is also a committee member.
1. Do you think this is public harrassment?
2. Should I pursue this further from legal stand point? if yes how and what should I do?
3. Am I wrong to think that they are in wrong here publically scolding and embarrasing my mom in society compound ?I hope I have been able to help you understand the situation. Any help is welcome.
Thank you

January 18, 2025 at 9:29 pmI don’t think there is anything here other than juvenile behavior by both parties. Allow for a cool down period or get a mediator from the society to contain the frayed tempers.-

OP
January 18, 2025 at 9:32 pmThe mail was from the managing committee and it was collective decision of the managing committee to write a defaming mail. I really don’t expect this to be resolved by them. But I do understand your perspective. Thank you for your comment-

January 18, 2025 at 9:41 pmI know how minor issues can derail otherwise mature conversations. The defamatory accusations reflect poorly on the committee members and their pettiness.
