Delhi Police have arrested two men who are accused of stalking and harassing Kolkata Knight Riders skipper Nitish Rana's wife Saachi Marwah in West Delhi . Apparently the incident took place in Kirti Nagar in the night and Saachi shot the video of the entire scenario and posted it on her Instagram handle.
The two miscreants have been identified as Chaitnaya Shivam (18), a resident of Pandav Nager and Vivek (18), a resident of Patel Nagar. Further investigation is underway, Delhi Police said.
On Friday, a complaint was received at Kirti Nagar police station through email in which the complainant alleged that on Thursday around 8.30 pm, she was going back to her home from Chhatarpur in her car with her driver, Deputy Commissioner of Police (west) Ghanshyam Bansal said.
A case was registered on Saturday under sections 354 (assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty), 354D (stalking), 427 (mischief causing damage to the amount of fifty rupees) and 506 (punishment for criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code at Kirti Nagar police station, Bansal said.
While waiting at the red light in Kirti Nagar area, two bike-borne persons crossed her car at a high speed and stopped their motorcycle in front of her car. They started staring at her and banged their hands on her car, the DCP said.
Saachi earlier revealed that she tried to report the issue to the Delhi Police but the authorities were of no help as well. When she tried to lodge a complaint against the alleged individuals, the authorities told her that she should let it go since she had already reached home safely and that in the future, she should note the number on the vehicle the next time.
"Just a casual day in Delhi, on my way back home from work! These guys randomly started hitting my car! Just no reason, stalked and chased and the police told me on the phone when I complained, ‘so now that you’ve reached home safe, let it go!
"Next time, number note kar lena’ (note the number next time), aye aye captain, next time, I’ll take their phone numbers also!" Sacchi wrote on Instagram.
