 New Delhi, April 28 

Three unidentified men, possibly commuters, have emerged as prime suspects in the porn video incident at Rajiv Chowk Metro Station, an internal probe by DMRC has found.

The probe report has been submitted to the police, a Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) spokesperson said.

Police is trying to identify the suspects seen in the CCTV footage which formed the basis of the investigation, the official said.

Another official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said police was scanning footage of CCTVs installed at the entrances of the metro stations as well as those captured by the platform cameras to identify the suspects.

The pornographic video clip was played on one of the screens of a giant video wall, a grid of 12 LED screens, at Rajiv Chowk, a major interchange station, on April 9.

A video of the incident, recorded and shared by passengers who were present at the spot, had gone viral soon after, leaving the metro authorities embarrassed. A probe was launched on April 15.
