Bengaluru doctor flashed by miscreant, complaint lodged
Doctors
Bengaluru: In a shocking incident, a doctor in the city has reported being flashed by a miscreant with police believing the same individual may be responsible for a similar incident with a lawyer. Police assumed that the culprit might be the same based on the descriptions provided by both the women.
The doctor was identified as a resident of Shanthinagar and she filed a complaint with the Basavanagudi police after being subjected to lewd behaviour by a man near a cafe on DVG Road on April 28. According to her report, the man, who had parked his scooter near her two-wheeler, made inappropriate noises as she was about to leave the cafe. Security footage from a CCTV camera installed at the cafe captured the incident.
The footage showed the suspect to be a man in his mid-20s. “He had unzipped and was indulging in an obscene act. He was doing it sitting on his scooter. I didn’t know how to react, so I just left the place,” she told the Times of India.
Police are examining the footage, although the number plate of the suspect's scooter was not visible in the video. A senior police officer commented, “The number plate of his scooter was not clearly captured in the camera. So, we are analyzing CCTV footage from neighbouring areas.” The investigation into these incidents is ongoing as police work to track down the individual responsible and ensure the safety of residents in the area.
In a similar incident on April 20, a 27-year-old lawyer was confronted by a scooter-borne miscreant on Cubbon Road. The lawyer reported that a man on a scooter approached her under the guise of asking for directions to Shivajinagar. After she responded, she observed the man unzipping his pants and exposing himself. This incident was reported to Commercial Street police, reports the Daily. A senior officer said a case has been registered. “We will know if the accused in both cases is the same only after catching him,” he said.
