New Delhi, February 15

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) security cell arrested a man on Saturday after a woman filed a complaint about his obscene behaviour in the Metro earlier this week.

According to a DMRC statement, the suspect was traced by the security cell after he had recharged his CSC online. It helped in tracing his cell phone number, ascertaining his identity and the arrest. The Delhi Metro Rail Police took him in custody from Gurugram.

“We request the public to use the passenger emergency alarm button if they notice any such incident and inform the train operator immediately. Also, give the coach number you are travelling in to help apprehend the accused the earliest,” said the DMRC.

The incident was reported by a woman passenger on Wednesday on social media in a series of tweets. — IANS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
