NEW DELHI: Police have launched an investigation after a woman was allegedly harassed near Eco World in Bengaluru’s Marathahally late Wednesday night.
The incident took place around 11.40pm when an unknown man riding a two-wheeler hit the woman with his hand and sped away, police said.
Whitefield DCP Shivakumar confirmed a case has been registered under Sections 74 (assault on a woman) and 78 (stalking) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. Efforts are on to trace the accused using CCTV footage and other leads.
Mangaluru dietician booked for anti-national remarks
In a separate case in Karnataka, police in Mangaluru have registered a case against a city-based dietician, Atifa, for allegedly posting anti-national and anti-Hindu remarks on social media. The post recently went viral, prompting swift action.
Mangaluru Police Commissioner Anupam Agrawal said the woman's mobile phone was seized for forensic analysis. "We contacted the hospital where she worked and have begun legal proceedings under relevant sections of the BNS," he said.
The action follows another FIR filed earlier this week against a Facebook user ‘Nichchu Mangaluru’ for allegedly justifying the April 22 terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir.
Police have said that digital evidence in both cases is being analysed and further legal action will depend on forensic results.
