After a video of a shameless man caught trying to molest a woman in Kozhikode went viral, the policeman from the area has finally caught the perp. The video shows him walking ahead of the woman on a desolate street for some distance, after which he is seen trying to molest her while he is half naked and then running back.

As seen from the video, the incident took place in broad daylight. The perp has been identified as Jamsheer. The incident is said to have taken place near Kozhikode’s YMCA Road on 18 October, the channel further stated.

In Kozhikode alone, 109 cases of molestation and 52 cases of rape were registered in 2016, according to a report.

In another incident last week, a minor girl was molested by a youth on a street in Mumbai. When the girl tried to object, she was beaten up while the bystanders just watched passively.

The assault took place after the girl asked the accused and his friends not to indulge in loud arguments. The girl was repeatedly beaten, after which she suffered a fractured nose. The incident was captured on CCTV.

According to a police official, the incident took place in the eastern suburb of Chembur at 7 pm, when the victim was going to her class with a friend.
