Delhi: In Delhi, an e-bike taxi rider allegedly dragged and molested an Air hostess on Wednesday night as she was heading home. The police arrested the suspect in Auraiya, Uttar Pradesh.

The incident happened on Simon Bolivar Marg near Buddha Jayanti Park while the victim was riding a taxi bike home from east Delhi. Deputy Commissioner of Police Devesh Kumar Mahla said that the police arrested 35-year-old Jaiveer in Auraiya after receiving the woman's complaint.

Accused Charged Under Multiple Sections

Mahla said Jaiveer was charged under sections 74, 76, 109(1), and 115(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita at Chanakyapuri Police Station. Police sources also suspect that he has been involved in other criminal cases before.

In her complaint, the woman said she hired the e-bike to go home to Dwarka on Wednesday night. During the ride, the driver asked her to guide him using the GPS map on his phone, which he handed to her.

Driver Asked Woman For Ice Cream And Took Wrong Turn

The woman told the police that the driver also asked her to buy him an ice cream, according to PTI. After taking back his phone from her and driving a few kilometers, the driver took a wrong turn. When the woman questioned him, he said it was a shortcut.

The driver then stopped the bike in a secluded spot and dragged her toward some trees, where he allegedly attacked her. The woman tried to call for help. Hearing her, a passing couple stopped their car when they saw her in distress.

When the driver saw the couple approaching, he fled the scene, leaving his two helmets behind. The couple then took the woman to a nearby metro station. Police said they are investigating the case and checking Jaiveer's background.
