The boy came up from behind the woman and allegedly molested her. However, the girl did not approach the police and lodge a complaint immediately after the incident, as she was in shock and didn’t know what to do.

On February 8, when she went to an eatery with some friends to get some food parceled, she saw the same boy in the shop. She then lodged a complaint and the minor boy has been detained for offence under Section 354 (outraging modesty of woman) of the Indian Penal Code.
