Allegedly, the molester was sitting behind the woman and tried to grope and touch her inappropriately.The complaint was lodged at Bellapur police station through ‘Know Your Police Station’, an app recently launched by the state police. The police immediately took action and caught the molester on the outer ring road, who had no idea that the police was on to him.
