Woman Sexually Harassed At Lulu Mall In Bengaluru, Police Launch Probe

A video capturing a disturbing incident at a Bengaluru mall has gone viral on social media, prompting a police investigation. The video depicts an elderly man engaging in explicit and unwarranted behavior towards a young woman in the crowded games zone of the mall.

The footage shows the accused man intentionally touching the woman's back and then moving away from the scene. Shockingly, the victim did not react or protest against the misconduct. The video was originally posted on an Instagram account, gaining significant traction on social media.

The person who uploaded the video specified that the incident occurred at the well-known Lulu Mall in Bengaluru. They wrote, "I recorded this incident today evening around 6.30 p.m. in Lulu Mall Funtura Bengaluru.

This man in the video was engaging in inappropriate behavior with random women and girls in this area. When I initially observed him in a very crowded area, I became suspicious and started recording. Then I captured this footage. I reported the incident to the mall's security, and we tried to locate him but were unsuccessful. So, I informed the mall management and security, and they assured me they would take action. Such behavior is disgraceful."

The Magadi Road police, having received the video, have initiated a preliminary investigation into the matter.

This incident follows a previous complaint from a woman in Bengaluru who accused a Rapido bike taxi driver of inappropriate conduct during her ride, including sending indecent messages and engaging in a disturbing act of self-gratification. She shared her distressing experience on the micro-blogging platform 'X,' recounting how the driver continued this behavior despite her repeated requests to stop.
