The Delhi University (DU) student in her complaint claimed that no one came forward to help her even after she raised an alarm. She also alleged that the man tried to touch her waist several times.

“I made a video of his act and even shouted at him, but he did not understand. I even tried to approach people but they ignored it,” she said in her complaint.

The incident took place on a moving bus going from Vasant Vihar to IIT Gate, where the man got down, the student claimed, adding, “After he got down at the IIT Gate, I again tried to approach people but did not get any cooperation.”
