I later learnt they were BSF jawans. The first jawan made some obscene comments while passing me and also tried to grope me. Initially, I was shocked. But after he left, I chased him and caught hold of him near a police kiosk,&quot; she said &quot;Hearing the commotion, the public also came. The police personnel from the kiosk then took him in their custody,&quot; she added. Later, the woman lodged a complaint at the Shyampukur police station. Eyewitnesses said the trooper was drunk.
