The uploader had said that the incident had taken place at the famous Lulu Mall.

He wrote: “Recorded this incident today evening around 6.30 p.m. in #LuluMallFunturaBengaluru. This man in the video was doing such a thing to the random women and girls around here. "First when I saw him in a very crowded area, I felt suspicious about him and followed him recording the video. Then I got this. Went to security and complained about this, then we came in search of him but we missed. So informed the mall management and security, they said they’ll try to find that person and take action. Shame on such people,” the whistleblower stated. The jurisdictional #Magadi Road police have taken the video and started the preliminary probe.”
