Kolkata: A man was arrested after a young homemaker in Lake Town alleged that he was stalking her and even attempted to film her through a window while she was changing at home on Feb 17 around 9.30 pm. She raised an alarm. Hearing her screams, local residents and neighbours rushed out and allegedly caught hold of the accused when he attempted to flee. Cops said the woman was traumatised after the incident and lodged a complaint on Wednesday, leading to his arrest.
In Phoolbagan, an 18-year-old woman has filed a police complaint alleging she was followed and wrongfully restrained by a man late on the night of Shivratri while walking alone in a lane. She claimed that she could have been kidnapped if a security guard had not run in to save her. After reaching safety, she informed her family and, through her mother, sought to lodge a formal complaint with police.
