A journalist has lodged a complaint with Borivali police on Thursday, alleging an auto-rickshaw driver masturbated before her. She had hired his rickshaw for a ride from Malad (West) to Borivali on Wednesday evening.

"I was texting my colleagues, when a friend called. While I was on the call, I noticed the driver indulge in obscene actions. I told my friend about it," the woman said in her complaint to Borivali police.
