By : Sandhya
Karnataka Home Minister G Parameshwara responded to social media uproar following a shocking CCTV footage of sexual harassment in Bengaluru's BTM Layout. The minister stated, "In a large city like this, incidents like these tend to happen here and there," according to news agency ANI. Any necessary legal action will be carried out in compliance with the law. Additionally, I've told our commissioner to step upbeat patrols.
The timestamp on the CCTV footage indicates that the incident happened at approximately 1.52 am on April 3. In the now-viral footage, two ladies are seen moving through a small alleyway when an unidentified man who appears to be following them abruptly turns and gropes one of them before running away.
The woman can be seen leaving, clearly shocked by the attack. The victims and suspect in the event have not yet been identified by the police.
