Bengaluru: In the fourth such incident in a week, two motorbike-borne men allegedly tried to molest a woman while she was returning home from a gym in Bengaluru.
The two men apparently followed the victim and pulled her T-shirt at which, she screamed for help, forcing them to flee in panic after seeing some people, police said.
The incident happened on January 4 and the woman has lodged a complaint with the police, who have registered a case under IPC section 354 relating to assault or criminal force to a woman with the intent to outrage her modesty.
