In a disturbing incident at the Mall of Asia in Hebbal, North Bengaluru, two women bravely confronted a man they discovered secretly filming them on his mobile phone on September 15. The women immediately attempted to apprehend him, but the accused allegedly reacted with violence, manhandling them and pushing them to the ground in an attempt to escape the premises.
Undeterred, the women quickly recovered and sought assistance from fellow shoppers and mall employees. Their calls for help prompted a chase, with several passers-by outside the mall, including alert autorickshaw drivers, joining the pursuit. The man was successfully caught and subsequently handed over to the Kodigehalli police, along with his mobile device.
The complainants have since alleged that the accused possessed numerous videos of other women and girls captured during their visits to the mall. They are now demanding stringent action against him to ensure justice and prevent future such offenses.
