The Lokhandwala outlet of a well-known salon chain has come under fire after a 23-year-old actor filed a molestation complaint against its hairstylist. The woman has alleged that on May 16, Lemon Salon employee Sadiq Ansari, 24, groped her while giving her a head massage. However, sources from the salon said she made baseless allegations and then called her boyfriend and his brother to beat up the accused.
The alleged incidents occurred at the salon on May 16. "I had gone to Lemon salon in Lokhandwala market at 7.30pm on May 16 for getting a hair spa treatment. Hairstylist Sadiq put a black apron on me and started the spa treatment on my hair. After that, he began giving me a head massage. While doing so, he slipped his hands down to my waist and groped me. When I screamed, he said 'sorry madam'," the actor said in the FIR registered at Oshiwara police station on May 20, under section 354 (A) (sexual harassment) of the Indian Penal Code.
