A young girl was allegedly molested by the son of a businessman at a late night party at Sainik Farms after she refused to accept a drink offered by the accused.
Police sources said the victim’s bodyguard was also assaulted when he tried to rescue her. On the basis of her complaint, the police has registered a case under Section 354 of the IPC against the accused, identified as Abhishek Aggarwal, a resident of E-block, Vasant Vihar, and he was placed under detention.
The incident took place at a farmhouse in Western Avenue, Sainik Farms, at around 3.30 am on Sunday. The victim had gone to attend a party thrown by his friend along with her bodyguard Vinod Kumar. “The accused Abhishek spotted her and made attempts to talk to her. He even offered her a drink, which the victim turned down. At this point, Abhishek abused the victim following which she left the party,” a senior police official said.
The police said the victim was waiting for her car outside the house when Abhishek arrived and tried to drag her into his car. When her bodyguard Vinod tried to rescue her, the accused, who was accompanied by his seven friends, allegedly assaulted him and the girl. It was only after the security guards and the people attending the party noticed the brawl that the victim was let off.
