According to the police, a 32-year-old Cuffe Parade resident had approached them and filed a complaint against an unidentified man who would call her up and annoy her on the phone. &ldquo;The accused had called up the victim more than four times and harassed her, after which she decided to lodge a complaint.
After we tracked the location of his phone, a police team was dispatched to Bihar and the accused was arrested on Monday morning,&rdquo; said Senior Police Inspector Sharad Barde from Cuffe Parade police station. During interrogations, Mangal told the cops that a Delhi-based businessman had given him the number and asked him to call the woman up.
&ldquo;Apart from this disclosure, he has not uttered a word. We are trying to ascertain who the businessman is, and how he got the complainant&rsquo;s number. We have got custody of the accused and are investigating if he carried out similar transgressions on other people.&rdquo; The accused has been booked under section 354 D (stalking) of the IPC.
