A Chennai auto driver, Janarthanan and his accomplice, Pavin both were detained today for allegedly misbehaving with a woman passenger recently, police said.
The woman, who was staying at a relative’s place, had travelled in a shared autorickshaw on May 7 while returning from college. The auto driver and his friend then attempted to misbehave with her in an isolated place by using vulgar language and pulling her dupatta, police said.
The woman, however, managed to escape from them and told her relatives about the incident, following which they filed a complaint.
