In a shocking incident in Jaipur, two police personnel have been suspended for alleged negligence in handling a molestation case involving a pregnant woman in the Malviya Nagar area. The action was taken against Assistant Sub-Inspector Mahesh Chand and Head Constable Angadram, who was the initial investigating officer. Departmental proceedings have also been initiated against both officials.
The case stems from an incident reported on March 25 near Sector 9 in Malviya Nagar, where the woman alleged she was followed and molested in a public lane around 6:10 pm. According to her complaint, the accused approached her from behind, grabbed her and touched her inappropriately before fleeing the scene.
