SINGER ARRESTED IN MOLESTATION CASE

A 39-year-old woman filed a molestation case against Bollywood singer Yash Wadali at a Police station located in Goregaon West. The complaint was filed on Wednesday, and the singer was apparently arrested late on Thursday from a lounge in Oshiwara.

Police have registered a case against the singer under sections 354 (punishment for sexual harassment) and 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) of the IPC. The police report suggests that they are verifying the complaint following which the next course of action would be decided.

The woman who was allegedly molested said she had never met Wadali before this incident. "I did not want any unpleasantness and gave him time to calm down. I thought he had consumed a drink too many. But a little later, he grabbed my shirt collar and pulled me before pushing me back. He started abusing again. Everyone in the house ganged up on me, and I began to cry. I was asked to leave the flat which I did as I was concerned about my safety. From the car downstairs, I called up the police," the victim said this to the media.
