Mumbai: Police here have arrested two persons for reportedly harassing a woman YouTuber from South Korea while live streaming.
The matter came to fore after the video, in which, two youths – Mobeen Chand Mohammad Shaikh and Mohammad Naqeeb Sadrealam Ansari, were seen molesting the YouTuber during a live streaming.
On being informed about the incident, Khar Police registered an FIR u/s 354 IPC and arrested both of them.
“We were alerted about the incident, and immediately after, a team was formed, and subsequently, the investigation was initiated, said a senior official.
A Twitter handle which shared the video claimed that the woman was from South Korea and was livestreaming in suburban Khar area when the incident took place around 8 pm.
The video showed a young man coming very close to her and trying to pull her by holding her hand even when she protested. As the woman began to walk away from the spot, the same man again appeared on a motorbike with a friend, offering her a lift while she told him in broken English that she did not want one.
