Mason booked for ‘molesting’ Sector 50 resident

Gurgaon: A mason has been booked for allegedly molesting a Sector 50 resident. The accused, police said, had recently done some repair work at the woman’s house. On Monday, he went there again on the pretext of checking the work done and allegedly molested her.
“He was a familiar face, therefore, I allowed him inside the house,” the complainant said, adding that the accused first looked around to ensure her husband was away. “He then grabbed my hand. I resisted and snapped at him but he continued to hold my hand and tried to pull me towards him. I kept shouting at him and cried for help. Fearing that he may be caught, the man left the house after issuing threats to me,” she said.
Based on her complaint a case was registered at Sector 50 police station under sections 354A (sexual harassment) and 506 (criminal intimation) of IPC. SHO inspector Rahul Dev said the accused is a native of West Bengal and he was staying in Gurgaon at a rented accommodation. “We are conducting raids to arrest the accused,” Dev added.
