Doctors Booked
Hyderabad: A 45-year-old dentist has been booked for allegedly outraging the modesty of a woman by misbehaving and inappropriately touching her at a pub in Madinaguda. The woman is reported to be the wife of an IPS officer.
According to the police, the accused was also detained at the Gachibowli police station and was taken into custody. Additionally, he has been served a notice under Section 35 of BNSS (no arrest shall be made without prior permission of the officer not below the rank of Deputy Superintendent of Police).
This comes after CCTV footage of the club depicted the doctor allegedly misbehaving with the woman in an inebriated state, along with recorded statements from the club's manager. After gathering the evidence, the police registered a case against the doctor under Section 79 of BNS, which criminalises actions intended to insult a woman’s modesty.
