Bengaluru, May 2 (DHNS): South East division police, on Tuesday, arrested the Ola cab driver, Ravi Kumar, who molested a woman inside his car in the wee hours of April 28 in Bommanahalli. Investigating officials have taken the accused to the spot and are verifying on the incident.

Bommanahalli police is verifying the case details and also the driver's version. The woman, in her complaint stated the driver took a detour on the pretext of taking a shorter route and groped her after reaching a deserted spot.

She said she managed to get out of the car and started running while shouting for help, following which the driver chased her. She also said she then reached a small clinic and took shelter there and waited for her friend to pick her up.

    Ola app will show the route taken during the ride. So it should not be difficult to figure out things.

    I was suspecting that any woman ( she was a singer, if I m not mistaken), travelling at such late hours would be expected to be inebriated!!

    I find TRUTH in the driver's statement! Only after a thorough enquiry, mainly of the antecedents of this woman a decision should be taken, n not just on the statement of this woman!!

    @Rudolf Man/MUmbai.It is quite possible as you say.But why should he run and hide?Second why did the charges matter came first or during travel before they came to the endstation?Usually one gives up money when they come to the halt.Lady should know the route I .Many unspoken things are here evident.Dont the cab has any central connection ?or give information from driver?
