Bengaluru: A woman has accused an IPS officer of the rank of Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG) of sexual harassment.
The woman, an employee of a well-known transport and logistics firm, had filed a complaint accusing the officer of sexually harassing her in last December.
In her complaint, she said that the DIG was serving as police commissioner of a city when the incident took place. The woman, who is also associated with an NGO, had met the officer for an official purpose, accompanied by another woman.
The DIG allegedly contacted the woman over the phone at around 11pm and asked her to come to his house. When the woman went there, according to her complaint, the DIG allegedly expressed interest in having a relationship with her.
However, the woman, who reportedly told him that she was married, left the place immediately. The officer had also allegedly sent several vulgar messages to the woman’s phone the same night, threatening to file a case against her if she did not pay heed to his demand.
